[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 670596, member: 4362"] They aren't endangered in Florida but are listed as creatures of special concern. They are listed as endangered in Mississippi and South Carolina but in Georgia they are "protected non-game animals". I'm afraid since Atlanta doesn't have any they will be listed as endangered here shortly. Matter of fact there is a politician who has a company that is buying up a lot of land at the moment. Land is worthless for anything other than rattlesnakes and gopher turtles. My suspicion is that we will shortly have a law requiring us to mitigate and relocate gopher turtles and this politician will just happen to know of a company that will provide this service. Then they will name a highway after him for his heroic efforts to save the turtle. Placing the turtle on the endangered species list will be the worst thing they can do for the turtle. The population I have is growing but I'm afraid if they restrict what I can do on the land because of the turtle the turtle will disappear just as the woodpeckers did. We can coexist without regulations but we cannot coexist with regulations.JMO [/QUOTE]
