A coworker found this little one on the road & brought it to me will someone identify?

Looks like a grumpy tortoise. Lol
But a picture of the full top and underside of the shell would help in identifying him

Hope this helps

Burmese mountain tortoise would be my thinking.

Gopher tortoise. They're protected. Did your co worker pick it up off the street? Put it back.

Thanks for replying. Don't you keep mountain torts? I was trying to tag you since I wasn't sure and remembered you keeping them?

 

[Yvonne G]

Yes, I do. Their leg spurs are way bigger.

Your in Florida correct? I hope your co-worker recalls where he found that tortoise, as it needs to be taken back.

I didn't realize gopher tortoises had rear thigh spurs at all. I wish there was complete taxonomic key for the tortoise family. It would make learning identification so much easier.
