How old do different reptiles live to, and how big do they get?

Question

I was wondering how long different reptiles live to and what is the largest they are known to grow to?

Any kind of reptile (pet or wild).

Answer 1

Iguana- 5-7 feet, up to 20 years
Bearded dragon- 18-22 inches, up to 9 years. The german giant bearded dragons can get up to 24-26 inches.
Corn snakes- 3-5 feet, up to 30 years
Ball python- 3-5 feet, 20-30 years
Burmese python- 13-15 feet, 25 years
Anole- 6-8 inches, 4 years
Chameleon- 12-25 depending on the breed, 15-20 years
Leopard Gecko- 6-9 inches,15-20 years
monitors- 3-7 feet depending on the breed, 15 years-ish.

Those are just the ones that many people have as pets.

Answer 2

Chelonians, turtles and tortoises, have the longest potential lifespan of most reptiles. With proper care, these species can live up to 40 to 60 years.

Lizards are also long-lived but not so long as chelonians. Geckos have been known to live into their 20s and iguanas can live into their teens. There is even a report that a Mexican beaded lizard lived nearly 34 years in captivity. The reptile with the shortest lifespan tends to be chameleons, which only live 1 to 3 years in captivity.

Snakes tend to have life spans in between turtles and lizards. Most snakes in captivity live 15 to 30 years. The oldest reported snake to date is a ball python that lived to be 47.5 years old at the Philadelphia Zoo.

Answer 3

found this on google....

Last week, Harriet the Tortoise celebrated her 175th birthday. Harriet is a Galapagos Island tortoise who has lived in the Australia zoo for 17 years. She is the world’s oldest living reptile.

Harriet was born in 1830. That was a long time ago! In fact, in 1830 there were no cars, no planes--not even electricity. At that time, humans were still riding in horse-drawn carriages down muddy lanes.

I also found that salt water crocodiles are the longest/largest in the world
