It Is Jonathan, A Tortoise Who Was Hatched In The 1830s And Is Still Alive Today

As we all know, we are living in a world where there is full of weird and amazing things. However, House on the small island of St. Helena is no exception to this.

The Dutch may have occupied St. Helena about 1645–51, but in 1659 the English East India Company took possession of the island. After a brief Dutch occupation in 1673, the East India Company was confirmed in its ownership. By 1673 nearly half of the inhabitants were imported slaves, but between 1826 and 1836 all slaves were freed.
