WOW, that turtle is old. I can't imagine anything that old.

A newfound giant turtle that lived 60 million years ago in what is now northwestern South America would have been more than a mouthful for a neighboring predator, the world's largest snake Titanoboa.

The turtle's huge carapace, or shell, was nearly circular, like a tire, the researchers said.
 
Figures... the really sad part is that I recognize that handwriting - IT IS EEL'S!!


HOOK 'EM!
