Aldabrachelys is the recognised genus for the Seychelles and Madagascan radiations of giant tortoises, including the Aldabra giant tortoise (Aldabrachelys gigantea). The Aldabra giant tortoise (Aldabrachelys gigantea), from the islands of the Aldabra Atoll in the Seychelles, is one of the largest tortoises in the world. In 1979, Curieuse and surrounding waters were declared the Curieuse Marine National Park in order to protect the native wildlife. Between 1978 and 1982, a conservation project relocated Aldabra giant tortoise from Aldabra to Curieuse. Today, it is the home of more than 300 Aldabra giant tortoise, some staying around the Ranger's Station and the rest roaming around elsewhere on the island.

Aldabra Giant Tortoise (Dipsochelys gigantea) is the last surviving giant tortoise species, which once inhabited some islands of the Indian Ocean. The carapace reaches around 120 cm in length and about 250 kg. The tortoise can live over 100 years. The Aldabra of Mauritius are derived from grandparent stock imported from the Seychelles in the 1880s.
