Leonardo DiCaprio Buys a Turtle

Leonardo DiCaprio just made his biggest mistake since agreeing to be in the movie, "Titanic." He just bought a tortoise that is expected to live for 70 more years. A.K.A., Leo will be long dead and the tortoise will be homeless on the streets.

Leo picked up the 10-year-old Sulcata tortoise at the North American Reptile Breeders Conference and Trade Show in Anaheim, CA over the weekend. He attended said conference with fellow "Inception" star Lukas Haas. Leo pre-ordered the exotic African tortoise from Prehistoric Pets, a California pet store that specializes in rare reptiles, and it cost him $400.

His tiny tortoise can can grow to be up to 200 pounds.
