Turtles can live anywhere from 10 to 300 years depending on what kind of a turtle it is. All turtles have some kind of a shell that they use for protection.

A turtle's life span varies depending on the species type. As pets, turtles can live anywhere from forty to sixty years. That's a long time to have a pet turtle. You can find more information here: http://www.petplace.com/reptiles/life-ex...
