Which animal has the longest life?

According to Guinness World Records, the longest life span of sea turtles can reach 152 years, and it is a well-deserved longevity star among animals.

Life span of animals

Perhaps the longest-lived animal is the tortoise. 1737, scientists captured an elephant turtle on an island in the Indian Ocean. It was identified that it was about 100 years ago. The turtle was sent to England and lived in the zoo for a long time. It still lived there in the 1920s. If the zoologist's calculation is correct when this elephant turtle is captured, its life span is about 300 years. Fish have a long life. 1794, a barracuda was caught in a lake outside Moscow. It wears a gold ring on its gill cover, engraved with the words "Tsar Boris is free". Tsar Boris lived from 1598 to 1605. This barracuda has lived in the lake for about 200 years. However, many modern experts are skeptical that pike can only live 70 to 80 years old. Now, scientists have developed a method to determine the age of fish by the rings on bones and scales. In this way, we detected the great white shark? Can live 100 years or more. It is best to determine the life span of artificially raised fish. For example, catfish can live for 60 years, eels for 55 years and goldfish for 30 years.

The life span of amphibian salamanders is very long, and they can live to 65438 0.30 years under artificial feeding. Among birds, ravens can live up to 70 years under artificial feeding, and eagles can live up to 80 years under artificial feeding. Parrots may live to 65,438+0.000 years old because of their cheerful personality, geese in poultry can live to 40 years old, but chickens can.

What animal has the shortest life? The life span of invertebrates paramecium and amoeba is calculated by day and night or hours, and their life span is at most one day and night. Among vertebrates, the longest life is loach, which is only a few centimeters long and has a life span of less than one year. Insects have a special life span. The adult life span of common flies is 15 ~ 25 days. If the larval stage and pupal stage are included, its life span is 25 ~ 70 days. In May, the adults of scarab can live for 1 ~ 2 months, but their larvae can live for 3 ~ 4 years in the soil. Worker bees born in spring and summer can only live for 6 weeks, and worker bees born in autumn can live for 6 months. The life span of the queen bee is much longer, and she can live for five years.

Some large mammals, bears and tigers can live for 40 ~ 50 years, small animals, wolves and foxes can live for 10 ~ 15 years, sika deer can live for about 20 years, squirrels and rabbits can live for 10 years, and cats and dogs can live for about ten years.

Judging from the figures of life span of various animals, it is strange to find that earthworms and foxes, toads and horses, crows and elephants have roughly the same life span. The ever-changing biological world is also very obvious in the animal age.
