Here's Dustin with the tortoise he rescued from getting hit on the highway when Jen's group were coming home from skiing at Mammoth. And here's some info about tortoises - including the fact they burrow, which I guess is logical since they're desert dwellers.
Tortoise— A land-dweller that eats low-growing shrubs, grasses, and even cactus. Tortoises do not have webbed feet. Their feet are round and stumpy for walking on land. Tortoises that live in hot, dry habitats use their strong legs to dig burrows. Then, when it’s too hot in the sun, they slip underground.
