There are many species of turtle, so I can't give you one blanket answer for all of them. If you're talking about pet turtles, I'll refer to the very common red-eared slider species. Their natural life span can exceed 50 years, though as pets tey normally live between 20 and 50 years. Box turtles, another common pet species, easily exceed 50 years, and many live over 100. Smaller sea turtles are thought to live 50-80 years. The lifespan of giant sea turtles is unknown, but thought to be similar to the smaller sea turtles.
