It's Good To Be The Biggest!

A hidden gem of Disney's Animal Kingdom is the collection of wildlife trails hidden on Discovery Island and the Oasis. If you take the Tree of Life Trails you will come across this incredible Galapagos Tortoise.


The Galapagos Tortoise is the largest tortoise on the planet. They can weigh up to 500 pounds and live four well over a hundred years. This species also played a huge role in Charles Darwin's work, so the Galapagos Tortoise is not just impressively large it is also played a part in human history.
