Desert Tortoise Plush Toy

Now you can safely snuggle your favorite wild animal! The desert tortoise is a species of tortoise native to the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts, home to several of our partner parks. In the summer they spend most of their time sheltered in burrows or rock shelters to regulate their body temperature and prevent water loss caused by the scorching heat. Winter sees them in a state of brumation, when they can go for months without food. Fortunately, this cuddly version doesn't hide in burrows or brumate; it's ready for snuggles whenever you are!
