About Radiated Tortoises
The radiated tortoise (Astrochelys radiata) is a large, beautiful tortoise native to Madagascar. It is an herbivore feeding mainly on seeds,leaves and fruits in dry forests. It gets its name from the yellow streaks which radiate like sun rays on its carapace. Radiated Tortoises live 40 -50 years, but a radiated tortoise may hold the record of the oldest living reptile, with one allegedly living 150 years. Unfortunately radiated toroises have been hunted extensively for the pet trade or poached for meat and is now considered an endangered species.
