Aldabra tortoises are among the largest tortoises in the world, second only to the Galápagos tortoise. Native to the Aldabra Atoll in the Indian Ocean, they can weigh up to 550 pounds and live over 100 years. Known for their massive, domed shells and sturdy, column-like legs, they are herbivores that graze on grasses, leaves, and even small woody plants. Social and curious, they often live in groups and interact with each other in their natural habitat. Aldabra tortoises are considered a vulnerable species due to habitat loss and hunting, making conservation efforts essential to their survival.
