This is all about protecting the desert tortoise.

Hey I agree with that, they closed it off for a damn tortoise but he stopped paying years before that.
I always CRINGE when I see the interior department signs using the indian arrowhead. My GGGrandmother hid from the Trail of Tears (the gubmint). Makes my skin crawl.
I’ve got a vague recollection of reading once that desert tortoises actually do better on land that’s been grazed by cattle than on ungrazed land.
Sound familiar to anyone else?
Reminds me of the Barrycade signs.
