This is a Sonoran desert tortoise. While they do live wild in Arizona Arizona Game and Fish has a robust adoption program. This is certainly escaped from a caretaker probably somewhere on your street hopefully close by. Do not release it to anyone except proven owner. Please post on www.nextdoor .com Post on the pet section on the Ring "Neighbors" app ( you dont need to own a ring product.) www.ring.com/neighbors. Their shells are like fingerprints no two are alike anybody claiming this tortoise should be able to provide you with pictures that they have on their camera roll so you can compare the shell. Do not fall for the yes that's my tortoise I'll come pick it up. As weather permits... Important ! Get FLYERS posted up at high traffic points all around the neighborhood and surrounding communities Folks might even know their tortoise is gone until they see a Flyer and check. Simple Flyers (handwritten is fine) like this are very effective. If you cannot locate the owner since these are technically owned by the state of Arizona you need to contact the Arizona Game and Fish Sonoran Desert Tortoise adoption program directly. For Found tortoises (480) 694-8395 (text pictures and context/clear location)

Elizabeth Jeanne Allen it wouldn't be in the wild in that area. Many people house desert tortoises as part of a game and fish program. It's probably one of those.

That’s a desert tortoise. It should be brumating by now- they are wild too so could be coming off a golf course or something
