d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Explanation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the first day of his Seychelles visit, Prime Minister met and fed Jonathan, the Aldabra giant tortoise estimated to be 194 years old and recognised by Guinness World Records as the world\u2019s oldest living land animal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Aldabra Giant Tortoise:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It is the <strong>second-largest<\/strong> species of <strong>land tortoise<\/strong> in the world, <strong>after the Galapagos giant tortoise <\/strong>(Chelonoidis nigra).<\/li>\n<li>Scientific Name: Geochelone gigantea<\/li>\n<li><strong>Habitat and Distribution:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>It is <strong>endemic <\/strong>to the <strong>Aldabra Atoll of the Seychelles,<\/strong> an archipelago nation in the <strong>western Indian Ocean<\/strong> about 930 miles east of Africa and <strong>northeast of Madagascar.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>These are <strong>terrestrial <\/strong>and occur in a wide variety of habitats, including<strong> scrub forests, mangrove swamps,<\/strong> and <strong>coastal dunes and beaches<\/strong>, each with their respective vegetation.<\/li>\n<li>The<strong> largest populations <\/strong>of tortoises are found on <strong>grasslands called \u201cplatins.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Their heavy grazing <\/strong>has <strong>formed <\/strong>a special kind of <strong>grassland habitat called \u201ctortoise turf.\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Features:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>They can measure over 120 cm, reaching weights of over 250 kg.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Males <\/strong>are<strong> considerably larger than females<\/strong> and have<strong> longer, thicker tails. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>They range in <strong>color <\/strong>from<strong> dark gray to black. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Their <strong>carapace <\/strong>(or upper shell) is <strong>highly domed and thick, <\/strong>with a <strong>small neck plate <\/strong>that is usually visible, a feature absent in other species of giant tortoises.<\/li>\n<li>They have <strong>very long necks<\/strong> to aid in food gathering.<\/li>\n<li>Their legs are short and thick, often covered with bony scales.<\/li>\n<li>Their <strong>heads <\/strong>are<strong> relatively small, <\/strong>pointed, and covered by scales.<\/li>\n<li>Lifespan: It is <strong>among the longest-living vertebrates<\/strong>, with many individuals living <strong>over 100 years <\/strong>and some believed to exceed 150 years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Conservation Status:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>IUCN Red List: <strong>Vulnerable<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Hence, both statements are not

d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Explanation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the first day of his Seychelles visit, Prime Minister met and fed Jonathan, the Aldabra giant tortoise estimated to be 194 years old and recognised by Guinness World Records as the world\u2019s oldest living land animal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Aldabra Giant Tortoise:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It is the <strong>second-largest<\/strong> species of <strong>land tortoise<\/strong> in the world, <strong>after the Galapagos giant tortoise <\/strong>(Chelonoidis nigra).<\/li>\n<li>Scientific Name: Geochelone gigantea<\/li>\n<li><strong>Habitat and Distribution:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>It is <strong>endemic <\/strong>to the <strong>Aldabra Atoll of the Seychelles,<\/strong> an archipelago nation in the <strong>western Indian Ocean<\/strong> about 930 miles east of Africa and <strong>northeast of Madagascar.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>These are <strong>terrestrial <\/strong>and occur in a wide variety of habitats, including<strong> scrub forests, mangrove swamps,<\/strong> and <strong>coastal dunes and beaches<\/strong>, each with their respective vegetation.<\/li>\n<li>The<strong> largest populations <\/strong>of tortoises are found on <strong>grasslands called \u201cplatins.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Their heavy grazing <\/strong>has <strong>formed <\/strong>a special kind of <strong>grassland habitat called \u201ctortoise turf.\u201d <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Features:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>They can measure over 120 cm, reaching weights of over 250 kg.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Males <\/strong>are<strong> considerably larger than females<\/strong> and have<strong> longer, thicker tails. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>They range in <strong>color <\/strong>from<strong> dark gray to black. <\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Their <strong>carapace <\/strong>(or upper shell) is <strong>highly domed and thick, <\/strong>with a <strong>small neck plate <\/strong>that is usually visible, a feature absent in other species of giant tortoises.<\/li>\n<li>They have <strong>very long necks<\/strong> to aid in food gathering.<\/li>\n<li>Their legs are short and thick, often covered with bony scales.<\/li>\n<li>Their <strong>heads <\/strong>are<strong> relatively small, <\/strong>pointed, and covered by scales.<\/li>\n<li>Lifespan: It is <strong>among the longest-living vertebrates<\/strong>, with many individuals living <strong>over 100 years <\/strong>and some believed to exceed 150 years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Conservation Status:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>IUCN Red List: <strong>Vulnerable<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Hence, both statements are not
