Description:
During a hike in Joshua Tree National Park, he stumbled upon the shell of a desert tortoise.<br/><br/>To his surprise, the bottom part of the shell, known as the plastron, was still attached, and inside there was a puzzle-like object that appeared to be a tumor.<br/><br/>Later, it was revealed that it was actually a bladder stone.<br/><br/>This stone forms when a tortoise becomes dehydrated.<br/><br/>Normally, a well-hydrated tortoise secretes urine during urination.<br/><br/>However, in a dehydrated tortoise that's conserving water by recycling its urine, these urates can accumulate over time and slowly form into a bladder stone.<br/>Location: Joshua Tree National Park, United States <br/>WooGlobe Ref : WGA025379<br/>For licensing and to use this video, please email licensing@wooglobe.com

_atv-rider-testing-the-suzuki-kingquad-124-atv-rider.webp "Join us for a ride on the 2022 Suzuki KingQuad 500 AXi and KingQuad 400 ASi in Arizona’s high desert.<br/><br/>ATV Rider tests the 2022 Suzuki KingQuad 500 AXi and 400 ASi at Alto Pit OHV Park in Prescott, Arizona.<br/><br/>Video: Mark Willaims<br/>Test Rider: Bryce Hendricks<br/>---<br/>We’re in the middle of reviewing the capabilities of a pair of 2022 Suzuki ATVs: The KingQuad 500 AXi SE+ and the KingQuad 400 ASi SE+. We’ve already completed trail testing in Prescott, Arizona at Alto Pit OHV Park, a perfect location with plenty of elevation changes, varying terrain, desert and mountain landscapes and summer temperatures that are far more bearable than the Southern Arizona deserts. <br/><br/>While we’re still taking notes and kicking tires, we thought we’d drop a quick clip of what goes on during a typical ATV Rider trail test. We spared you the pencil pushing and focused on the dirt slinging, which you can see right here.<br/><br/>In the black jersey, that’s ATV Rider’s newest contributing editor Bryce Hendricks at the controls of the KingQuad 500 AXi. Executive Editor Jeff Henson (orange jersey) managed to keep up with Bryce for a few miles on the KingQuad 400 ASi, but old age and a rear swingarm are no match for youth and independent suspension.<br/><br/>Keep and eye out for in-depth reviews of both of these 4x4s soon, right here on ATVRIDER.COM.")
