Giant tortoise, Lonesome George
What age would you like to live to?
Many people often live to a ripe old age, but 'Lonesome George', a giant tortoise, was estimated to have been over 100 years old.
This week his keeper of 40 years, Fausto Llerena, sadly found him dead in his enclosure.
Over the years Lonesome became a symbol of the Galapagos National Park in Ecuador, which attracts over 180,000 visitors each year. He received his nickname as he often shied away from female company.
