Yes, it is.A gopher tortoise is a type of tortoise, which is a reptile, so it is a vertebrate.

This grouping is the subphylumVertebrata andincludes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, sharks and rays.Anything that does not develop a true vertebral column can be described as an invertebrate, but this term is confusing because it basically just means "all animals that aren't vertebrates" which includes insects, worms, snails, crabs, octopuses, squid... It's pretty vague, as it covers about 97% of species in the animal kingdom.
