Desert tortoise

Sheldon the desert tortoise poses for a picture while being held by biologist Chris Herbst, Edwards Environmental Management, April 12. Sheldon currently lives in EM’s customer service area in Bldg. 2650A. Captive tortoises like Sheldon are available for adoption through EM’s Desert Tortoise Adoption Program. Under federal law, tortoises that are captive must remain captive to help prevent disease from being further introduced into the wild tortoise population. (Air Force photo by Kenji Thuloweit)
