Most #turtle species are expected to have a lifespan of 50 to 100 years. As of date, the oldest sea turtle encountered by humans is said to be at least 400 years old. It is even possible that there are older ones that we are unaware of, as most sea turtles almost never leave the ocean (especially the males!). On rare occasions, however, male sea turtles can be seen visiting their nesting sites while still staying in the water– reminiscing their younger days, perhaps? ❤🐢 . . . #turles #seaturtle

Two #Turtles! I grew up with #Proganochelys “before brightness turtle” Baur 1887 as being the oldest known #turtle at ~210 mya. It lacked true teeth, had a sweet shell, and a tail that ended in a club which I absolutely adore! The head couldn’t retract like #cryptodires, nor bend to one side like #pleurodires. It has been found in Europe. More recently, the age of turtles has been pushed back to 230 mya in Asia. I hear about turtles most Thursday nights when I meet with turtle expert McCord. #Me
