BONITA SPRINGS -- What started as your typical brothel bust in Florida, ended with the discovery of three endangered tortoises.
On Wednesday in Bonita Springs, the sheriff's office went into a home looking for alleged prostitutes.
The gopher tortoises were found in a bathtub half full of dirty water.
Fish and Wildlife at the scene said the animals were cold and unresponsive.
They were revived after being put into a heated vehicle for an hour.
