‘Paul Manship’s large figural groups are idealized and refer to mythic characters and stories. The artist used the same stylization in his animal sculptures as in his figural groups, but to different effect. In an intimate scale, this stylization accentuates the decorative quality of each animal. By exaggerating certain features or expressions, Manship also lets a little bit of their personalities peek through. This is especially visible in his gilded works, where the gold patina highlights the contours of the animal’s forms and their precise surface details. Many of Manship’s animal sculptures were originally created as part of his design for the gates of New York’s Bronx Zoo.’ https://americanart.si.edu/artwork/tortoise-16111

A crowd of dozens of big tortoises on grassy ground, with a stone wall behind them.
After 150 years, giant #tortoises are back on Floreana Island! Thanks to #NASA satellite data, 158 tortoises were released into habitats where they can thrive, helping restore the island’s ecosystem. A historic moment for conservation and a win for #science!

🌿 Giant tortoises have returned to #FloreanaIsland in the #Galápagos for the first time in nearly 200 years, thanks to a major conservation project. 🐢 Scientists bred young #tortoises in captivity and released them to help restore the island’s damaged ecosystem and bring back natural balance. 🌎

A reptile with a large domed shell and thick, column-like legs covered in big scales.
For the first time in over 150 years, giant #tortoises are roaming the wild again on Floreana Island in the Galápagos. Late last month, conservation teams released 158 tortoises at 2 sites. They chose those sites using NASA satellite data. 🐢 🛰️ Read more: buff.ly/bD5pU8Z

A black and white illustration of a Mojave desert tortoise. The tortoise is standing up tall on its legs in front of a puddle of water. Light, sketchy lines in the background give the impression of a desert environment with a few tall grasses.
Mojave desert tortoises depend on taking periodic drinks of water from unreliable rainstorms for hydration. Because of this, they can tolerate extremely high conc. of solutes in their bodies when water is scarce -- a state known as anhomeostasis.
