Cucumber Mouth
A small Mojave Desert Tortoise. He was only 4 inches long. When hatched, they are only the size of a silver dollar. I believe this one is about 1 to 2 years old.
Because they are often eating green leaves, their mouths look like little cucumber slices. They are amazingly good climbers too. They can climb up amazingly steep and large rocks.
