Jonathan is a Seychelles giant tortoise, recognized by Guinness World Records as the world's oldest living land animal, estimated to be around 192-194 years old as of 2024-2025.
He arrived on the island of Saint Helena in 1882 as a fully mature tortoise and has lived at the governor's residence, Plantation House, ever since, witnessing major historical events.
Despite being blind and having lost his sense of smell, he remains in good health, with a strong appetite, and is a beloved national icon.
