Slow and Steady Wins the Race

Here is a photo I took quite some time ago.  One of the great hidden gems of Disney's Animal Kingdom is the quiet and beautiful Discovery Island Trails, in the shadow of the Tree of Life.  Take a walk through them and you may come across this giant reptile.

The Galapagos Tortoise is the largest tortoise in the world, coming in at over five feet long and more than 800 pounds.  But I learned all that from Safari Mike so follow that blog and soon you too may learn all about the Galapagos Tortoise.
