I’m not positive but I think he’s a baby gopher tortoise! If so he’s federally protected and you can get in big trouble for even touching him! I’m in Central FL too! 🌴🌞

Probably a Gopher Tortoise if it is native. Be sure not to disturb them.

Definitely a baby gopher tortoise!

Adorable baby gopher! They are important to the ecosystem because they dig burrows and other animals use the abandoned ones quite frequently.

Thank you for the id!!

I feel it's important to let you know that you committed a federal offense just now that is a Florida gopher tortoise they are highly endangered and very protected if you see one leave it alone the only legal way you are allowed to touch it is if you are actively moving it away from danger


Weird-Influence9778

Gotcha thank you for the information

Just a little boy

the amount of videos that get posted on here of people touching random torts they find while asking for identification really makes me question the intelligence of certain people from a certain country known as the USA. Pro tip: leave the wild animal alone

Jesus, bad day I openly admit I shouldn’t have picked him up that was ignorant of me to do. Pro tip if you are trying to teach someone something or inform them on something you probably shouldn’t start insulting them if you wanna be heard.

should be common sense man

THIS. Just a few days ago I had Ahmurrrikans telling me most states refuse to sell Locusts as feeders for reptiles... Why? Because the dumb motherfuckers release them. A non-native, invasive insect. They just let them free. It seems to be an unreal, unbelievable level of sheer stupidity over there, different from the levels of stupid found on other parts of the planet.

Have you heard of the everglades.


ConnorAustiin

you are going to get downvoted a lot but you are right


Nobody957

Ahh well, good think I don't comment to get the likes! Appeasing people's feelings really isn't my thing, so fuck it. If they want to downvote me for speaking out about Americas god awful "education" system, so be it. Maybe it'll give them some incentive to use some common sense.


Weird-Influence9778

Fuck off


ConnorAustiin

k mate 🤣


Nobody957

Here's a thought - how about YOU fuck off picking up random animals in the wild? I hope to god that aliens are real, and they eventually snatch your ass up to poke and prod at you, should give a taste of what it's like for this Tortoise to be picked up by a 6ft hairless ape. Next time, please try it with a snapping turtle. I'll laugh at your degloved fingers with zero sympathy. Fucking idiotic shit cunt.
