The average life span of the Asian elephant in the wild is a hearty 60 years, but according to the Guinness Book of World Records, the oldest elephant ever was Lin Wang, a pachyderm who lived to 86 years of age.
In the wild, elephants can live to around 60 if they are not killed by disease or predation. Their molars are constantly lost and replaced throughout their lives, with the teeth moving forward in the jaw and dropping out as they become worn, as new teeth erupt from the back of the jaw.
