Amazing chart shows the planet's longest-living animals. For humans, reaching the age of 100 is a rare milestone. For some animals, however, it's hardly uncommon. Not all plants and animals age the way we do, and some are built for much longer lifespans than ours. Of the 10 animals that live the longest, all of them live well past 100, according to a recent post in Discovery News. At the top of the list, the ocean quahog (aka the clam) lives to be 400 years old, while the runner-up bowhead whale lives to be 211.
The largest animal to ever live on our planet is the blue whale. It's tongue weighs as much as an elephant. It's heart is the size of a Volkswagon Beatle, and some of it's bloâ¦od vescles are so wide you could swim in them. So most likely it will have the largest testicles.
