Isn't it neat how turtles can live soooooo long....and look just the same as they did when they were 20 !!!

Think we can find the gene that does that ???

Steve Irwin?

Oh yeah, that guy that's on my permanent "ignore" list! No one should risk a childs life for their "almighty dollar" and camera time (ratings, etc..)!!
