ARIZONA — There are few things better on a hot summer day than turning on the sprinklers and getting a bit of relief from the intense heat. Even this tortoise agrees.
In what is now my favorite video of the whole year, a tortoise in Arizona was caught sticking its head in a sprinkler last week. According to ABC15 Arizona, the station that posted the video, the temperature on the day this was captured had reached 110 degrees and the tortoise was just trying to cool down.
And I really I can't blame it. I usually wish I could stick my head in front of a sprinkler every time the temperature gets above 80 degrees. I feel like this tortoise has things figured out.
