I heard everything from 20 years to 60 years! A long time by any standard! Several people on here have turtles at or almost at 20 years. Someone commented that some scientists think turtles don't die of old age - they just get older and older until they get hurt or sick.
My husband and I are youngish retirees but we figure Spot, who's three, could outlive us, so we're having to make provisions in our wills for his long term care. Seriously.
