Sample Text:
Tortoises use their claws to dig burrows that can be up to 30 feet long. Since they are cold-blooded and take on the temperature of their environment, they are hot when it’s hot and cold when it’s cold. To help control their temperature, they build south-facing burrows to stay warm and north-facing burrows to stay cool.
Tortoises are very slow-moving animals. They usually move at less than 1/4 mph. The fastest they’ve been recorded moving is 5 mph.
