Eat your heart out Mick Jagger! On Father’s Day on 15 June, Goliath the Galapagos tortoise celebrated his 135th birthday by becoming a dad for the very first time.
Up until this prior week, he had not fathered any offspring. That changed when after 128 days of incubation, one egg out of a clutch of 8 that was laid January 27th, successfully hatched on June 4th!
Not only is this the first offspring for Goliath, but it is also the first time in the history of Zoo Miami that a Galapagos tortoise has hatched.
Goliath’s official record has him hatching out on the island of Santa Cruz on 15 June, with his latest birth year given as 1890. He arrived at the Bronx Zoo on 23 July, 1929, and finally came to Zoo Miami on 30 July, 1981. During his time at Zoo Miami, he had bred with several different females but had never successfully sired an offspring.
The mother of his first ever shelled bundle of joy is Sweet Pea, who arrived at the Crandon Park Zoo on Key Biscayne, Florida as an adult in 1960, indicating that she is between 85-100 years old.
An application has been made to the Guinness Book of World Records to officially recognize Goliath as “The Oldest First-Time Father in History!” Considering the age of Sweet Pea, their combined age is over 200 and they may also qualify as “The Oldest First-Time Parents in History!”
Both Goliath and Sweet Pea are doing well in their public habitat and are not aware of their newly hatched offspring. In the wild, hatchlings are on their own from the moment they emerge from the egg and the parents have no further connection to them. The hatchling appears to be healthy and has been removed from the incubator and placed in a separate enclosure where it is active and full of energy.

**VIDEO AVAILABLE: CONTACT INFO@COVERMG.COM TO RECEIVE**
Katy Perry and her crewmates have safely returned to Earth after a brief voyage into space aboard Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin rocket.
The six-strong all-female crew consisted of Perry, Bezos’ fianceé Lauren Sánchez, broadcaster Gayle King, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.
The 11-minute suborbital flight, which launched from Blue Origin’s West Texas site shortly after 8.30am local time (2.30pm BST), carried the six women more than 100km above the Earth’s surface — past the Kármán line, the internationally recognised boundary of space.
Perry sung Louis Armstrong’s What a Wonderful World during the flight, something fellow passenger King described as a “highlight” of the trip to space.
Upon returning to Earth the Firework singer noted that she felt "super connected to life" after the flight, adding that she "couldn't recommend this experience more".
Meanwhile, Sánchez said she was "so proud" of the crew, adding, "I can't put it into words."
Cheers erupted from inside the capsule as it touched down and the recovery crew moved in. Bezos himself opened the capsule door, personally greeting Sánchez — the first to emerge — with a warm embrace.
The rocket booster, a reusable component of Blue Origin’s New Shepard system, also made a successful vertical landing nearby.

Katy Perry and her crewmates have safely returned to Earth after a brief voyage into space aboard Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin rocket.
The six-strong all-female crew consisted of Perry, Bezos’ fianceé Lauren Sánchez, broadcaster Gayle King, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.
The 11-minute suborbital flight, which launched from Blue Origin’s West Texas site shortly after 8.30am local time (2.30pm BST), carried the six women more than 100km above the Earth’s surface — past the Kármán line, the internationally recognised boundary of space.
Perry sung Louis Armstrong’s What a Wonderful World during the flight, something fellow passenger King described as a “highlight” of the trip to space.
Upon returning to Earth the Firework singer noted that she felt "super connected to life" after the flight, adding that she "couldn't recommend this experience more".
Meanwhile, Sánchez said she was "so proud" of the crew, adding, "I can't put it into words."
Cheers erupted from inside the capsule as it touched down and the recovery crew moved in. Bezos himself opened the capsule door, personally greeting Sánchez — the first to emerge — with a warm embrace.
The rocket booster, a reusable component of Blue Origin’s New Shepard system, also made a successful vertical landing nearby.

SONDERKONDITIONEN: Satzpreis!
**VIDEO AVAILABLE CONTACT INFO@COVERMG.COM TO RECEIVE**
Katy Perry and her crewmates have safely returned to Earth after a brief voyage into space aboard Jeff Bezos’s Blue Origin rocket.
The six-strong all-female crew consisted of Perry, Bezos’ fianceé Lauren Sánchez, broadcaster Gayle King alongside five other female passengers including the Amazon founder’s fiancée, Lauren Sánchez, NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen, and film producer Kerianne Flynn.
The 11-minute suborbital flight, which launched from Blue Origin’s West Texas site shortly after 8.30am local time (2.30pm BST), carried the six women more than 100km above the Earth’s surface — past the Kármán line, the internationally recognised boundary of space.
Perry sung Louis Armstrong’s What a Wonderful World during the flight, something fellow passenger King described as a “highlight” of the trip to space.
Upon returning to Earth the Firework singer noted that she felt "super connected to life" after the flight, adding that she "couldn't recommend this experience more".
Meanwhile, Sánchez said she was "so proud" of the crew, adding, "I can't put it into words."
Cheers erupted from inside the capsule as it touched down and the recovery crew moved in. Bezos himself opened the capsule door, personally greeting Sánchez — the first to emerge — with a warm embrace.
The rocket booster, a reusable component of Blue Origin’s New Shepard system, also made a successful vertical landing nearby.

Ever wondered what it’s like to sleep in a bed made of snow? A hotel chain in the Alps allows guests to do just that - while staying surprisingly warm.
Each winter, Iglu-Dorf rebuilds five alpine retreats entirely from snow and ice, creating a magical setting deep in the mountains. The interiors may be frozen, with temperatures hovering between -2°C and +2°C, but the experience is anything but chilly. Guests are wrapped in expedition-grade sleeping bags rated for -40°C, with thermal mats, electric lighting, and USB ports ensuring a blend of adventure and comfort.
For those needing an extra dose of warmth, there’s even an outdoor whirlpool.
The igloo villages are spread across Switzerland, Austria, and Germany, with locations in Davos, Gstaad, Zermatt, Innsbruck, and Zugspitze. Each site is linked by a system of corridors shielding guests from the elements, and the structures are so solid that even a snow groomer could drive over them without causing damage.
Beyond their practicality, the igloos are visually stunning, with walls adorned in detailed ice carvings by international artists. Guests can choose from standard ‘classic’ igloos tucked away in the snow or indulge in a luxury suite featuring a private whirlpool, Champagne service, and an en-suite toilet. Whichever option they pick, morning tea is delivered right to their sleeping bag.
The villages offer more than just a place to sleep. Restaurants and bars serve up steaming mulled wine, fresh fondue, and snacks, while saunas and traditional wooden ‘kotas’ with open fires add to the cosy ambience at select locations. But there is one thing to note - there are no showers on-site.
For those craving adventure, Iglu-Dorf provides plenty of activities, from skiing and snowshoeing to a mystery igloo challenge, where teams solve clues hidden around the village.
Rates start at around £475/$600 per night.

Each winter, Iglu-Dorf rebuilds five alpine retreats entirely from snow and ice, creating a magical setting deep in the mountains. The interiors may be frozen, with temperatures hovering between -2°C and +2°C, but the experience is anything but chilly. Guests are wrapped in expedition-grade sleeping bags rated for -40°C, with thermal mats, electric lighting, and USB ports ensuring a blend of adventure and comfort.
For those needing an extra dose of warmth, there’s even an outdoor whirlpool.
The igloo villages are spread across Switzerland, Austria, and Germany, with locations in Davos, Gstaad, Zermatt, Innsbruck, and Zugspitze. Each site is linked by a system of corridors shielding guests from the elements, and the structures are so solid that even a snow groomer could drive over them without causing damage.
Beyond their practicality, the igloos are visually stunning, with walls adorned in detailed ice carvings by international artists. Guests can choose from standard ‘classic’ igloos tucked away in the snow or indulge in a luxury suite featuring a private whirlpool, Champagne service, and an en-suite toilet. Whichever option they pick, morning tea is delivered right to their sleeping bag.
The villages offer more than just a place to sleep. Restaurants and bars serve up steaming mulled wine, fresh fondue, and snacks, while saunas and traditional wooden ‘kotas’ with open fires add to the cosy ambience at select locations. But there is one thing to note - there are no showers on-site.
For those craving adventure, Iglu-Dorf provides plenty of activities, from skiing and snowshoeing to a mystery igloo challenge, where teams solve clues hidden around the village.
Rates start at around £475/$600 per night.
