okay..i just read there are some possibly still alive on the galapagos island around the time of Darwin in 1835..now thats nuts LOL...theyre supposedly the longest living animal on the planet...maybe ill look more into a african spur thigh sulcatta...but hell...even those can probably outlive me (im 25)...LOL!....gotta give these animals the respect they deserve..thats for sure...even these aldabras seem to get extremely large..

yes they live long, tortoise in general live forever, lol, Sulcatas still get big keep that in mind, they get anywhere from 30-40 inches, roughly 2-3.5 feet, also keep in mind they live 100years or more still. also they cant stand cold, besides that they are great, im sure you will find them awsomely awsome.

Can you actually buy Galapago Tortoises? Are they not endangered or protected?

Yes you can buy them, you need permits to buy one and own one and a lot of money but you can buy them, You would be buying a CB one not a wc one.
