Harriet
Age: 176 year/s
Sex: Female
Collected by Sir Charles Darwin in 1835, Harriet is the oldest living animal on the planet. She gives biologists an insight into the potential longevity of giant tortoise species and to the damage potentially already done in skewing the age structure of existing populations. She is the oldest captive land animal on the planet at present. It is a privilege and an honour to meet this beautiful animal, and thousands of people all over the world will attest to this. Harriet also enjoys eating hibiscus flowers and a good scratch!
Helaas.....hoorde net op het nieuws dat Harriet op de rijpe leeftijd van 176 is overleden... :cry: Zij was een van de inwoners van Australia Zoo (Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin...you know who). She was the oldest living animal on the planet!!!
