The Geneva Natural History Museum prepared a fantastic birthday party for the tortoise. The museum had been a home for the tortoise as he was born there and hadn’t left his home since birth.
If the tortoise had lived in the wild he wouldn’t have lasted so long as Janus couldn’t place both his heads in the shell.
This special tortoise lived so long as he got special care from the museum-organic salad for diet, daily massages and baths in green tea and chamomile, regular walks that are sometimes accompanied by music, and rides on a specially-designed skateboard.
