Janus at the Bioparc

A long-standing partner, the Bioparc enthusiastically agreed to house our two-headed tortoise until the Museum's construction work is completed, because of its sensitivity to vibrations.

During this period, you can visit Janus (and his caretakers) in his new home designed especially for him! Janus is a male Testudo graeca Greek tortoise with two heads. Each head has an independent brain. The right head is dominant, while the left is more phlegmatic. This sometimes complicates the animal's movements, since the two heads don't always agree on which direction to take!
In the wild, Janus wouldn't have survived, as it doesn't have the space to protect itself from predators by hiding its heads and legs in its carapace. Thanks to captivity, Janus has benefited since birth from attentive care (optimized food, baths, massages, walks) which has given him an exceptional longevity of 26 beautiful years!

Sous-titre
A well-known resident of Geneva's Natural History Museum, Janus is now vacationing at the Bioparc.
