Lonesome George, arguably the most famous tortoise ever, has sadly
passed away.
Aged around 100 he was the last surviving member of the La Pinta subspecies of the Galapagos Islands' giant tortoises, and as such had become a conservation icon.

Hey, it's not MY fault if they keep changing the content. They should get it right the first time.

I don't read things that tend to be full of hate-mongering lies. That's why I don't read
this or
this either!
