We released 5 gopher tortoises this past week! Each of them we admitted to the hospital exhibiting different types of injuries. Some injuries were due to dog attacks, while others were displaced and experienced human interference. If you see a gopher tortoise wandering where you believe it doesn’t belong, please call the wildlife hospital so we can help assess the situation and help if needed. We are open 365 days from 8am to 7pm. Call 239-262-2273 for wildlife assistance. #freedomfriday #gopher

Spotted any Gopher Tortoises or their burrows recently? These underground homes aren’t just for tortoises – they shell-ter over 350 different other species! While larger wildlife, like the Florida Pine Snake, can be found in burrows, most burrow dwellers are actually insects. In fact, more than 10 insect species even have ‘Gopher Tortoise’ in their name. 🐢🐍🦗 #gophertortoise #floridawildlife #conservation #protectedspecies April 10th is Gopher Tortoise Day and we will shellebrate all month! |
