Linux Kali Android tools download

I have been looking through forums to download Android Tools on my linux distro and I can't seem to find any support. Could anyone please tell me if there is a way to download this on a linux system? Specifially for Kali.

<html> <head> </head> <body> <p>Hi Gerald, Any specific reason you are using Kali Linux? Kali Linux is specifically created for penetration testing. That being said I'm a fan of it, but I did find that it is not smart to run as your main system as it can be vulnerable. I'd suggest running it from within virtual box or VMWare that does not have access to your main computer system. Now that my disclaimer is out,... :) If you search in Google for "install android tools on kali" there are quite a few videos on how to do this. I have not yet done this but another huge plus to using a virtual machine is that you can make clones of the operating system and if you mess something up you can just delete the clone and create another. </p> </body> </html>
