I love that a 20 year old tortoise was hanging around in India during the American revolution. He lived through the war of 1812, Mexican- American war, the Civil War, Spanish American war, the invention of the airplane, every conflict of the 20th century, he just turned 200 when man walked on the Moon, and was still around when the second Iraq war started. That kind of makes you change your perspective. Than tortoise was older than my country when he died in 2006! Rest in peace Sir
They're eating method reminds me alot of old people eating. They just sort of blindly chomp at their food with their weird beak that's kind of like dentures, then mash them up with their beak denture witb their mouths open while staring blankly off into space.
Some scientists believe that lobsters can live for hundreds of years. Some even think lobsters can potentially live forever. There is also a jellyfish that lives pretty much forever.
Like the Greenland shark. The oldest known example is 400 years (plus minus 100) years old, and there is no sign of them having an age limit. And with their age of sexual maturity being 150 years its quite possible there are 600-700 year old fish out there...
Technically nothing dies from old age, they simply get more fragile from age and die from something failing eventually. It's interesting to think that Tortoises never truly get fragile enough for things to suddenly kill them casually.
they can not only live that long, but even survive without eating for years! When my grandfather passed away, we found a tortoise locked in his closet. My mom recalled that they had gotten that tortoise when SHE was in college. We kept it feeding as much as we could wondering how long he was trapped in that closet since the lock on the closet door had completely rusted shut! It lived well beyond after I went to college. Sadly it got some kind of cancerous tumour and died when I got my first job. But I'm sure if it wasn't for cancer, it would have lived to see my grandchildren! Although I missed a lot more when my pet dog died.
+Seolhe When most people think of vultures they only think of African vultures on the discovery channel. Here in Missouri most people are completely oblivious to the fact that its impossible to go a single day with out seeing dozens of Turkey Vultures, their everywhere. Great suggestion.
Actually, not quite. Bad rap is a generally accepted phrase, and far more common than "bad rep", even though it'd seemingly make more sense. From Dictionary.com: "Bad rap: noun phrase - An erroneous conviction or sentence; wrongful punishment; bum rap (Underworld) - Any unjustified condemnation : Microsoft gets a bad rap for a reason"" The phrase originated as a sort of mix-up. The original phrase seems to have been a bum rap. Its origins trace back to underworld slang of the Prohibition Era. A “rap sheet” is a criminal record, and a “bum rap” meant a false accusation (or even a false conviction). Eventually, the phrase’s definition became a bit more broad to cover perceived unfair accusations of any kind. At some point along the way, the alternative “bad rap” came into play.
+Rafael Lopez Before thinking of space travel and colonising other planets , shouldn't we maybe think first about our own planet we are destroying at the very moment?
Nadim Z We are gonna do the exact same thing over and over again. Colonize another planet, exploit everything on it and just plain destroy it. Just like earth. Sure, it sounds amazing all of that space traveling and stuff but we first need to tend the only current planet that can sustain us.
We aren't destroying our planet, we are destroying ourselves! In fact, the planet is doing pretty damn good. At any time it could just reset itself, and restart the cycle of life all over again! (Or not...). But yeah, I see your point. Though I think it's too late for us to save ourselves on this planet. If anything, I think all of that attention should be moved to space travel and colonization. Though it would be... Really difficult.
There is no such thing as dying of "old age" its always some kind of organ faliure, which was indirectly caused by the old age. Especially in turtles who have no real lifespan there is no real concept of bodily age. As an example Greenlandsharks who have no predators only die because humans killing them, or parasites (which are rare for greenlandsharks as their meat is toxic).
No! no. no. Tortoises are not cute. puppies and kittens are cute. Baby chickens are cute. Tortoises might be cool, tortoises might be exotic, tortoises are a lot of things, but not cute. Im tired of people calling everything cute. Now I cant say a girl is cute, or Iits like saying she is like a tortoise.
One of my earliest memories is of the Galapagos tortoises at the Philadelphia Zoo, hearing the mating sounds before seeing them wondering what animal we would be seeing next and my parents trying to rush me past.
Great for you my tortoise died died in november because of cold environment my mom used to call him as son too and he died because he was looking unhealthy and i ignorged it and 3 days later he died in my arms I had to give him funeral and it was the worst thing i had done i still regret that thing till now :(
WOW!! I HAVE A BIOLOGY DEGREE AND I HAVEN'T ONCE NOTICES THAT I CAN FEEL THOUGH MY FINGER NAILS UNTIL I SAW THIS VIDEO. And to think I learned something new learning about myself watching a video about turtles
I patted Adwaita's back! He was kept in the zoo in Calcutta and when I was a kid, the enclosure security was pretty lax in security- for herbivores people could get right up to the wire boundary and the animals would come to the edge for food.
The thing about the shell rings determining age is pretty inaccurate, as turtles can shed more or less of their rings, depending on various factors. But other than that, fascinating video. Negligible senescence sounds really cool. I'll have to look into it. I wonder if it's at all related to the life stage reversal that certain jellyfish experience
As much as we'd love to live 200 years, that would inevitably force every single one of us to experience cancer at LEAST once in our long lifetime but probably several times. And then there's the population problem worldwide. All in all, living 200+ years would be a very bad thing for our planet as well as individually. The idea sounds great if those problems could be addressed ethically, beginning with curing cancer, Alzheimer's, and all other similar problems.
Hi Animalogic! Could you make a video about blind snakes? I often find one crawling and last week I saw one inside our bathroom. And they look like worms. Excellent video! Thank you!
@@MagentaLizard simply because few lifeforms wants to kill Pando...But Killing Pando is way way way easier than killing a immortal jellyfish because Pando can't move...1 liter of gas + 1 match stick and you can kill million tons of Pando...Even with a nuclear bomb you can't kill million tons of immortal jellyfish because they don't stay in one place unlike Pando....
Lots of people in the comments are bringing up a lot of other creatures that live longer, but they are all aquatic. The key word here is “terrestrial animal” so for a land creature, yes turtle live for a substantial amount of time which is still pretty remarkable. 🐢
That tortoise mating clip near the end was from Tanzania. The dude in the background was saying, "pole baba" which means "sorry father" or rather "sorry pal." 😂😂😂 That tortoise sound though
+King Hanzo The liger isn't really it's own species though? It's just a completely artificial hybrid that'd never happen in the wild and that shouldn't exist at all, seeing how they suffer from terrible health issues and serve no real purpose other than to be exploited for profit. The only good reason to make an episode about them is maybe to point out how absolutely terrible their existence is :P
In my last life I was a dinosaur that was dying on a red earth. It's been 250 million years since I last stood, but here i am world these atoms have come together again to raise hell once again
Oh no. We’re already overpopulating the earth enough, living up to about 70-80. If everyone lived to be above 100, it would mean disaster for this planet.

Thanks for the video. People don't understand why I find tortoises so interesting. They are quite unique.
This channel deserves more subs and views
I love totises they remind me of some of our old humble & graceful men the way they move with such suttlecy & slow moition, love it

Because they’re always old
Redwood trees are the longest living organisms we know about. Some living 3,000 years.
Nope, recently scientists found worms in permafrost, with a little warmth and food they started moving their age is almost 40,000 years
Tortoises live very long because they are born with a house. They don't have to break their backs paying mortgage.
Awesome please do honey badgers next :)
What's next? Ground bees?! lol
