He was not an addict, he was on a mission.

This viral meme post reframes the real-life story of Diego, a Galápagos tortoise who fathered over 800 offspring in a breeding programme, as a heroic "mission" rather than addiction, garnering 85,000 likes and 1.2 million views in under 24 hours.

Diego's prolific mating from the 1970s to 2020 helped repopulate the critically endangered Hood Island subspecies, with DNA tests confirming he sired 40% of the 2,000+ juveniles released into the wild, per studies from the Galápagos National Park.
Humorous replies highlight the post's appeal, joking about human parallels like "Don't encourage Elon" or divine assignments, underscoring how animal conservation tales blend education with entertainment on social media.

Reproducing multiple times a day for decades is what tortoises do. How will its offspring do their own reproduction if they all share the same parent?

It says he fathered 40% of those released. Once they mix with the others (60%), that should be a manageable situation.
