Default Grass height

Blueblaze talks abt poor diet, mowed grass and habitat

Appears that diet is sufficient. Lots of big fat tortoises and have seen no dead ones

As mentioned above grassy pastures and fields are adequate habitat and you see lots of tortoise burrows in pastures when driving toward Eustis

I just looked outside this am and the grasses are quite high, perhaps nearly 2 feet and not recently mowed
