Summary
Louise, one of the Combat Center's two ambassadors, makes an appearance at the Natural Resources and Environmental Affairs-hosted ceremony for the first release of tortoises from the Combat Center’s Desert Tortoise Headstart Program, September 30, 2015. NREA released 35 tortoises from the program after they spent approximately 9 years at the Tortoise Research and Captive Rearing Site. The tortoises were required to grow to a length of at least 4 inches before being released in order to assure they could better fend off predation. (Official USMC photo by Lauren Kurkimilis/Released)
