The planet needs more tortoises and fewer people.

[@catlover34fl]

Absolutely and other wildlife too.

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

Totally agree!! 💞

[@Mindfreeingme]

Been watching this show since almost day one
. My favorite part is this

[@martina21953]

This is the best portion of the show. I always come back to RUclips to watch the whole segment. BTW, these tortoises are so cool! I had no idea they could move so fast.

[@rr7firefly]

It is no accident that ET the extraterrestrial's face looked like a tortoise. What a lovable face.

[@damamae950]

Tortoise love. Beautiful.

[@BenjamintheTortoise]

Love spending a relaxing moment with tortoises! 💞 These Gopher Tortoises are protected here in Florida, they're losing much of their natural habitat to people and overdevelopment. We need to do all we can to keep them safe!

Sweetheart tortoises ❤ Direct from Galapagos!

[@timsmig8809]

[@sheafan1971]

1:12. Man showing his moves to the ladies

[@formermpc10]

Yes, this is courtship behavior.

[@hdtravel1]

They are neat !!

[@dennisbertoli6304]

Always such a thrill to see these babies while disc golfing in Melbourne, FL! Between incredible conservation efforts and questionable politics, truly one of the things that makes Florida such an interesting state.

[@sjwilloughby-greene8214]

It's a beautiful world and here is proof. 💚✌️💚

[@VEGANSAM]

I never thought they could move that fast! It almost looked like a cartoon!

[@disastermaster1413]

[@nitwitt50]

😅

[@drewconway7135]

So, no almanac this week? And no Sunday Passages either? Is that because of OJ?

[@marytheresejacksonlutz2533]

I wondered and thought the same

[@patrickblanchette4337]

Cool!😎

[@marciaaustin8231]

They are like desertturtles in california

[@larrysouthern5098]

They are kinda cute though.....
