Some live to 200 years and some turtles lie about their age!
(AP) A giant tortoise thought to be one of the world's oldest creatures has died in a Calcutta zoo, ending a life that spanned much of modern Indian history.
Local lore said Addwaita, the Aldabra tortoise whose name means "the one and only" in the local Bengali language, was some 250 years old.

Wow, that is a hard one. But it really depends on the type of turtle, how it was cared for, or how it was able to care for itself in the wild. But they have potential of living quite a long time.

The idiot who said parrots is wrong. Parrots max is about 85 years. The crucible is heart beats over body size, that's why mice live only 3 to 4 years. Do the math and watch discovery channel!
