Bibi and Poldi call Quits to Marriage after 115 years

Breaking up is not hard to do.


Important news from Europe.  Bibi and Poldi, giant turtles, together for 115 years have suddenly decided to separate and no longer want to live together as man and wife.  No doubt marriage gets worn out a bit after a century or more.

Zoo management have called in animal experts to try and give the pair counselling - feeding them romantic good mood food and trying to get them to join in joint games - but so far without effect. Zoo boss Helga Happ said: "We get the feeling they can't stand the sight of each other anymore." 
Bibi and Poldi have been a pair since before anyone alive today can remember - they have been together at the Austrian zoo in Klagenfurt for 36 years and before that they lived at Basel zoo in Switzerland. 
Zoo boss Helga added: "They are both 115 years old - they have been together since they were young and grew up together, eventually becoming a pair.
