Currently the Georgia Sea Turtle Center is caring for eighteen gopher tortoise hatchlings from the wild. Gopher tortoise shells are covered in scutes that are made of keratin, like our fingernails, and should be a hard protective material but for an unknown cause all of these hatchlings are exhibiting soft, pliable shells.
