Gopher Tortoise - Jacksonville Beach, FL - Figurative Public Sculpture on Waymarking.com

A paved path makes a circle though the park and several wildlife sculptures are located along it, including this one. A sign near this sculpture provides life history information about sea turtles, which is not what this sculpture represents. However, sea turtles do nest on the adjacent beach so the information about them should be interesting to park visitors.

Sign by tortoise statue that incorrectly identifies it as a sea turtle.
