The desert tortoise, Gopherus agassizii, lives in the Mojave Desert.
Baby desert tortoises do not hibernate. They have a more active lifestyle compared to adult desert tortoises and do not require hibernation to survive the colder temperatures. Instead, they regulate their body temperature by moving to warmer or cooler areas in their habitat.
Tortoises infact do sometimes fight, mainly the desert. the males are very territorial and some females

When building a house in the Mojave Desert, it is important to consider the extreme temperatures, limited water supply, and potential for desert wildlife encounters. Utilizing materials and designs that offer good insulation against heat and cold, incorporating sustainable water and energy systems, and careful planning for landscaping to minimize water usage are all essential factors to consider. Consulting with local experts and obtaining necessary permits are also crucial steps when constructing a house in the desert environment.
I believe leopard tortoises are somewhat similar, although the coloring is much different and leopard tortoises are the 5th largest tortoises in the world. Actually, none, sorry. Desert Tortoises are all too often carriers of Mycoplasma Agassizii and other tortoise species have no built in defense against that. They are also very sensitive and susceptible to other tortoise species specific disease/parasitic issues and mixing of different species of tortoises is not recommended for just this reason. Groups specific to desert tortoises and their care, issues, etc. can be found in the related links.
