    Very informational video. I just saw one outside my property and made a video to share. They are too cute, I think. Thanks for the share. Cheers!

    I don't know why, but I started laughing so hard at 3:35 when the tortoise was running like there was no tomorrow!

    They're not just clever, they're good samaritans too.

    The recurring threat of fire is mostly man made... Florida has a super hard on for controlled burns.

      Controlled burns are almost always done for ecological purposes. Besides reduction of fuel, preventing much worse uncontrollable scrub fires, prescribed fires can be very beneficial for some of the ecosystems in Florida. They clear away invasive plants, and can be used to control plant disease in native plants as well, among other benefits.
      Besides those intended to clear space for development (which is a very small percentage of controlled burns) it is almost always to the benefit of not only us but to the environment.

      Fires are why this ecosystem can exist in the first place (and destroying natural fires is why it no longer exists in many places it used to)

      The plants and animals in the southern United States depend on occasional bushfires.

    If you go to the deepest dark in Florida I knew plenty of old people that would eat these guys. They were old enough I think it was depression days but yeah they would eat them.
