Diego, a giant tortoise over 100 years old, played a crucial role in saving his species from extinction by fathering around 800 offspring in captivity. He is the most dominant of three males at the Galápagos National Park's breeding center. Genetic studies revealed Diego fathered nearly 40% of the repatriated tortoises. Weighing 80 kilos and stretching up to 1.5 meters, Diego was repatriated from the San Diego Zoo in 1976. The breeding program has successfully returned about 2,000 tortoises to their native island, helping the species recover from the brink of extinction.
