    I took some pics of a few weird looking frogs and one huge friggin owl today. Definitely nothing at cool as that old turtle. Went to the Christman Sanctuary in upstate NY today.

    I found hiking last year to be a great way to let stress out and get some exercise. I recommend it to just about everyone.

    Yeah, that turtle does look ancient.

    Turtles are among the very few land-based animals that can outlive humans.

    A tortoise has once lived to 190 years old, being the oldest animal ever known. A certain type of whale has been known to occasionally live to over 200 years old.

    No human male has ever lived to 120. One human female (a French woman) made it to 122.

    I once read that scientists are unsure if turtles can even die of old age, they seem to get stronger as they get older. There is some turtle refuge where they have never seen a turtle die of simply "being old". Pretty cool stuff.... Turtles FTW.

    China was hiking in Concord MA.

    Incidentally, the video of ants fighting was taken in Lexington MA, in the same general vicinity.
