This is an interesting list and some of them will surprize you. We all know about tortoises living a long time, but who knew about jellyfish.

I knew that some reptiles live a long time so the Tuatara don't surprize me. However, I never thought about clams having a long life. The Geoduck clams live over 100 years. So if you decide to eat one, you could be costing the clam 100 years of life.
I knew Koi lived a long time and I have heard of Hanako. They are intelligent fish and I can imagine what a 200 year old Koi would know. It would be amazing.
The real surprizes were the sea urchin and the Antarctic sponge. A sponge over 1000 years old! WOW!
We don't even have close to that much time.
