Oscar is HOME!!! This precious little muffin arrived home from UC Davis yesterday after several weeks in the hospital to have a large amount of cloacal stones removed. He’s still not out of the woods yet as he needs to pass all the feces that was backed up in his GI tract due to the stone obstruction, but they sent him home because there wasn’t anything they were doing in the hospital that we couldn’t do here at home. They are concerned his intestines could rupture if he can’t get the fecal material out on his own, but surgery is even riskier so this is the best plan. At home he’s getting antibiotic injections, fluids and stool softeners through his esophageal feeding tube, and warm water soaks. He goes back for a recheck st the hospital next week. We still have about $2000 to raise to cover his $6500 surgery/hospitalization bill, so if you’re feeling generous, he (and we) would be very grateful! #loveoneanother #sulcata #oscar #tortoise #sulcatasofinstagram #vetmed #reptile #reptilemedicine #exoticvetmed #exoticvet #sulcatatortoise (at Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmNxHQmr6u6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Great God Om is happy that the dandelions are back. Halfway through filming this video, I started to regret the green nail polish. If I don't learn my lesson, I'm going to lose a finger one of these days.

That face when kids get a little too excited and turn into goblins is just too good not to share

The lifespan of a tortoise really depends on the species. Some tortoises can live for over 100 years, while others have a lifespan of only 10 or 20 years.

The Lifespan of Different Tortoise Species

So, how long do tortoises live? That depends on the species.

Some tortoises can live for up to 100 years, while others only have a lifespan of 10 or 20 years. The Galapagos tortoise is the longest-living species, with a lifespan of up to 100 years.

The giant Aldabra tortoise comes in second, with a lifespan of up to 80 years. And the African spurred tortoise is third, with a lifespan of up to 60 years.

As you can see, the lifespan of tortoises varies depending on the species. So if you’re thinking about getting a tortoise as a pet, make sure you do your research and find out how long your chosen species can live.

Factors That Affect Tortoise Lifespan

So how long do tortoises live, you ask? It really depends on a variety of factors, such as the species of tortoise, the environment it lives in, and how well it’s taken care of.

For example, a Russian tortoise can live for up to 50 years, while a Mediterranean tortoise can live for up to 160 years. The lifespan of a tortoise also depends on its diet and whether it has been spooked or not.

If you’re thinking about getting a tortoise as a pet, it’s important to do your research and find out what the average lifespan is for that particular type of tortoise. That way you can make sure you’re prepared for the long haul!

There are a few things you can do to make sure your tortoise stays healthy. The most important is to make sure your tortoise has a balanced diet. They need protein, fruits, and vegetables to stay healthy.

You also need to provide your tortoise with plenty of fresh water and make sure they have a place to hide and get away from the sun. And lastly, make sure you take your tortoise to the vet for regular checkups.
