In one of the sweetest animal moments of the year, Jonathan — the world’s oldest living land animal at 194 years old — “sent” a special birthday card to Sir David Attenborough for his 100th birthday.
The card reads: “A Shell-ebration for a True Legend! To Sir David Attenborough at 100, From Jonathan the Tortoise at 194.”
Jonathan, who lives on the remote island of St. Helena, has outlived multiple generations and even met several British royals. The gentle giant and the legendary broadcaster share a deep connection to nature and wildlife conservation.
