Folks at the Geneva Natural History Museum are celebrating a special birthday and world record.

A two-headed tortoise, Janus, is turning 25 years old and will become the world's oldest two-headed tortoise.

Since two-headed tortoises are unable to retract their heads into their shells, they often don't survive long in the wild, which is why museum leaders said his longevity is a huge milestone.

Janus gets fed organic salad, bathed in green tea and exercises on a custom-made skateboard.
