| This male African Spurred Tortoise (Geochelone sulcata) named Herman weighs 41 pounds at just 12 years old. Native to sub-Saharan Africa, Sulcata tortoises have been captive bred in the United States as exotic pets since the 1980s. With an estimated lifespan in captivity of 120-150 years, and a potential to grow up to 200 pounds, it is the world's third largest tortoise species, exceeded only by the Galapagos and Aldabra tortoises. |
