Another one I didn't know about that is having a hard time sharing habitat with man. A shame, as we too in FL have a "gopher tortoise that is endangered for a similar reason: whenever they build new homes his underground tunnels are destroyed and he likely buried alive to smother.
I wish you had a jpg picture to post. I've never seen one. Are they beautiful? It's tough to be a "slow creature in a fast world" |

Excellent poem and thoughts. It's not just the animals that we mess with. It's their habitat. They can't live if we turn their world upside down.
Best regards,

they would be with us so much longer if Man
would learn to leave them alone.
So very sadly happening to far too many of nature's wondrous creatures these days. |

How sad that so many of our animal friends are slowly and unfortunately quietly slipping in the isles of time basically unnoticed. Another of God's creatures to succumb to fate, making me wonder when it will be mankinds turn....
Be always safe,

Mary,
I've never heard of the desert tortoise! You educate with compassionate lines of caring - well done.
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
What man has done to God's creatures is a shame. They seem determined to live a lonely existance ... and they're killing each other off, too. When will it end? |
