Darwin took her from the Galapagos Islands in 1835. I met Harriet about 18 months ago at Steve Irwins Australia Zoo (about 30 mins north of me) & took these with my p&s.
What a good life she had Gus....... so when I get that old you think someone will let me graze in their front yard and eat the grass too
Every time I see a close-up of these large Turtles, I immediately think of ET. ..... Skippy (Australia)

But she definately had a good innings. I also agree with Skippy and reckon the turtle thought "it was time to phone home".
