  It’s not certain this is true, but it’s somewhat likely. At least, that’s what I’m getting from the Wikipedia article.

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harriet_(tortoise)

  She was not kept as a pet by Darwin, but she may have been collected by him on a journey, then kept at a museum(?)

  Just today I have again started to listen the book “Ageless” by Andrew Steele, which mentioned this tortoise at the very beginning. BTW, a great book about the real science how we can practically stop aging and dying from it.
