Oldest Denis Island Resident Turns 120
New Year's Day on Denis is not solely about ringing in another year – it also marks the birthday of one of our most famous island residents. Toby, the oldest giant tortoise on the island, celebrated his 120th birthday on 1st January, with a little help from Denis staff and guests alike.
The team from the kitchen and gardens prepared a giant tortoise-sized "fruit pie" for Toby to share with his family and friends in the spacious tortoise park where they reside.
