African side neck turtles that live in captivity will have better lives because they will get the proper care. This is why they can live up to 50 years or more. I don't think the difference is that specific regarding lifespan, as any turtle is known for its longevity.

The African Sideneck Turtle is a freshwater turtle that spends most of its time in mud, riverbeds, and shallow lakes. This dark-shelled animal feeds on invertebrates, such as insects and worms. The male African Sideneck Turtle stores its sperm from May to September. After that, it is released into the epidermis three times longer than the testes. Then, the female can lay as many as 6 to 40 eggs at a time.
