Gopher Tortoise Services

Our team of environmental scientists is licensed to survey for and relocate gopher tortoises, a keystone species in Florida’s ecosystems. While gopher tortoises are best left undisturbed in their natural habitats, there are instances where relocations become necessary. We conduct such studies in compliance with the FWC Gopher Tortoise Permitting Guidelines.

Gopher Tortoise Surveys

• This service includes environmental assessments conducted to identify the presence of Gopher Tortoises on a property or within a project area. We use methods that ensure compliance with FWC regulations, which accurately detect the presence of Gopher Tortoise and helps make informed decisions on project planning.

Gopher Tortoise Permitting

• Obtaining the necessary permits as mandated by FWC for projects that may impact Gopher Tortoise burrows or habitats. Our team guarantees adherence to legal requirements, accelerates the permitting process, and fosters sustainable development.

Gopher Tortoise Relocation

• We provide Gopher Tortoise relocation services, ensuring their safe transfer from their original habitat to a secure new location, either on-site or off-site, depending on the project’s requirements. Our services comply with FWC regulations, minimize environmental impact, and contribute to the conservation of Gopher Tortoise populations.
