Went to the Southwest wildlife Conservation center today and this beautiful desert Tortoise was in Time-Out for knocking the other tortoises over on their backs.

He was in a gated area outside the bobcat enclosure. She said they move him out for awhile because he bullies the others. Flips them over... Not sure if he learns his lesson! He sure is cute.
