    If there is a longevity prize for a terrestrial animal, there is no doubt that the winner must be a tortoise.

    Giant tortoises are the longest-lived known animals on land, with some tortoises reaching ages of up to 150 years. Giant tortoises mostly live in the Colón Islands in Ecuador and the Aldabra Islands in the north of Madagascar.

    <> "When it comes to longevity, most people's first thought is a turtle, and the phrase "a thousand-year-old king and 80,000-year-old turtle" does not actually mean the lifespan of a turtle, but mainly to describe a treacherous and cunning person. In fact, the turtle itself cannot live for tens of thousands of years, and the soft-shelled turtle cannot live for nearly a thousand years. Anyone who keeps a tortoise knows that if they are kept properly, they may be able to live longer than their owners.

    Therefore, many people ridicule the family that raises the turtle, if you don't raise it well, you will send it away, and if you raise it well, maybe it will send you away.

    In addition to turtles, fish actually have a very long lifespan, especially koi fish. It is a very common ornamental koi in this pond, and it is generally said that people do not think about how long it can live when they see it, but in fact koi fish can live for more than 200 years. The longest-lived koi fish in the world is a Japanese koi named Hanako, which has lived for 226 years and has been passed down through four generations.

    Later, scientists researched that because of the water quality, in addition to Hanako, the other five koi who lived in the same pond with Hanako also lived for more than 100 years.

    The lighthouse jellyfish is a small jellyfish with a transparent body and red internal organs, the lighthouse jellyfish lives in tropical waters, mainly feeds on plankton and fish eggs, because it looks very much like a small lighthouse with lights on from a distance, so it is named the lighthouse jellyfish, which attracts people and carries not the beauty and cuteness of the lighthouse jellyfish, but the scientists observed that the lighthouse jellyfish has the ability to rejuvenate.
