Yesterday was actually Florida Gopher Tortoise Day, but as Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission says, “you can celebrate gopher tortoises by making your yard tortoise friendly and participating in our new recognition program.”

Georgians, you won’t get a sign, but you can also make your yards gopher-friendly for Gopherus polyphemus.
