Summary

Description
English: Tortoise 2-4 heads off in to the wild after being released at the Natural Resources and Environmental Affairs-hosted ceremony for the first release of tortoises from the Combat Center’s Desert Tortoise Headstart Program, September 30, 2015. NREA released 35 tortoises from the program after they spent approximately 9 years at the Tortoise Research and Captive Rearing Site. The tortoises were required to grow to a length of at least 4 inches before being released in order to assure they could better fend off predation and are equipped with a radio transmitter so that they can continue to be monitored.
