The desert tortoise is a protected species in Nevada, primarily due to habitat loss, urban development, and climate change, which threaten its survival. As a keystone species in the Mojave Desert ecosystem, the tortoise plays a crucial role in maintaining the ecological balance. Conservation efforts aim to protect its habitat and ensure the species' longevity, as it faces declining populations.
