Scientists try to mate Galapagos tortoise — again (AP)

12:15pm GMT, Friday, 21 January 2011

In this July 21, 2008 file photo released by the Galapagos National Park, a giant tortoise named 'Lonesome George' is seen in the Galapagos islands, an archipelago off Ecuador's Pacific coast. Scientists are still hoping to mate the elderly giant tortoise from the Galapagos - even though efforts over the past two decades have failed. On Thursday, park officials said that they are providing two new female partners for George, who is believed to be the last living member of the Geochelone abigdoni species.
