Horny Turtle Saves Entire Species

They call him "Diego The sexy tortoise" and he's had so many babies with different turtle mistresses that he's saved his own kind from extinction.

According to Agence France-Presse, Diego has fathered over 800 babies since the 1960's and now he's headed home and into sexual retirement. A natural inhabitant of Espanola Island, a part of the Galapagos, there where only 2 males and about 12 females left when he was brought to Santa Cruz from the San Diego zoo to help breed. Him along with other turtles helped bring the population to about 1,000 since.

Diego is now 100 and weighs about 170lbs. He will spend the rest of his time telling other younger tortoises about his promiscuity and super human abilities on his native island, as he is being returned there now. He's had so many kids, he automatically gets his own show on TLC.

“There’s a feeling of happiness to have the possibility of returning that tortoise to his natural state,” exclaimed Jorge Carrion, the director of the Galapagos National Parks service.

Diego is a much happier old man than Lonesome George, who is another breed of large turtle, but refused to breed in captivity and is thought to be the last of his species now.
