I cant believe they are holding the turtle... you know after 30 years its utterly mad. Captivity... 30 years think about it, thats intense nothing but your own thoughts to keep you company... you can see clearly in that turtles eyes its just lost it, completely insane,

It says in the article that it probably ate termites and licked the condensation from smooth surfaces.
