TORTOISES with Amanda Hipps
About this episode
Wildlife biologist Amanda Hipps discusses the differences between tortoises and turtles, their long lifespans, and various aspects of their behavior and evolution.
What's a tortoise? What's a turtle? Why do they live so dang long? What's up with their shells? Wildlife biologist and testudinologist Amanda Hipps studies gopher tortoises and dishes about turtle nomenclature, cliques, roommates, behavior, burrows, evolution and more. If you don't dig tortoises yet, you're about to fall deep into a turtle tunnel in love with them.
