A tortoise in Chandler, Arizona, discovered a novel way to cool down in the summer heat.

In this video, the reptile can be seen standing directly in front of a lawn sprinkler, moving his head and neck into the flow of the water.

Owner Cassell Archinuk told Storyful about her pet’s fascination with the irrigation device: “My 5-year-old sulcata tortoise is obsessed with the sprinklers when they go on and loves to put his face right in them.” Credit: Cassell Archinuk via Storyful
