Dear Reptile Side of Tumblr: A Breaky Bad Question

Hello Tumblr! I am a reptile enthusiast, and while I don't have any of my own, due to not being able to commit to proper housing and care of such glorious creatures, I used to do demos with them at a children's science museum. I have had a bearded dragon climb my back and necessitate outside removal, to the glee of first-graders, I have disentangled a snek from a desk, and I sang You Are My Sunshine many, many times to Euclid, a fine crestie who always licked his eye on cue, bless him to be an angel with scaly wings in Heaven. I feel safe in saying I have some proficiency with cold-blooded creatures.

Despite all of that, I have come across a reptile I have never heard of but my sister attests fully to. Video evidence here:

This tortoise, seen in episode 2x7 of the TV series Breaking Bad (Negro y Azul), has properties I simply am not familiar with in herpetology. Specifically, my sister has identified it as a "Mexican Burrowing Tortoise". This behavior is shown when the tortoise, having been mildly accosted by DEA agents, produced what would seem to be a chemical explosion like that of a bombardier beetle, and in the same moment, used the confusion to burrow "far away" at great speeds. Amazing!

I am absolutely sure @mycupofstars would not lie to me to save my tender heart from the consideration of an exploding turt. The Mexican Burrowing Tortoise must be real! Despite that, I can't seem to find much information on this astounding species. Can anyone here give me facts and information about this clever creature?

TIA, have a turt-ally awesome day! 🐢🙏🕳️
