Q: Are there other animals besides those two, fish and that lizard that have evolved in this way?
Yes, many species of fish can change back and forth between sexes, such as coral gobies.
Mommy the Galapagos Tortoise
Q: Is there, are there challenges to actually kind of convince her that like, hey, now's a good time to mate or to be reproductively active?
We don't actually know a lot about the social behavior of reptiles and we're learning a lot thanks to zoological institutions.
Mommy the Galapagos Tortoise
Q: So how often do Galapagos tortoises mate, like, both in the wild and also in captivity?
They will breed every year, and in the wild, it happens during the breeding season as they come across each other.
Mommy the Galapagos Tortoise
Q: So is this a miracle, Galapagos Tortoise, or is this something that Galapagos Tortoises can do in the wild, give birth at such an old age?
This is something they can do in the wild, give birth at such an old age.
