This is Lonesome George in his "younger" days. He died on Monday at the ripe old age of 100 and was the last tortoise of its kind. Galapagos Park rangers may embalm his body and display in the museum there.
Not a bad run but no offspring, even though female tortoises were introduced into his living quarters back in the 90's. Lots of eggs, but no babies.
