Threat to Tortoises

The ugly irony of it all. Our family adopted two baby endangered desert tortoises last Christmas. We give them daily care. The vet bills mount as they have frequent bouts with respiratory disease. We see them as an important part of history and our planet’s future survival. And the irony? As we struggle to save our fragile endangered tortoises, our neighbors in Las Vegas Valley plan to kill them. How stupid and ignorant.
