Lifespan of a Tortoise

Giant tortoises are believed to be the longest living animals with an average lifespan ranging anywhere from 120-200 years

Lifespan of an Ant

Ant colonies can be long-lived. The queens can live for up to 30 years, and workers live from 1 to 3 years. Males, however, are more transitory, and survive only a few weeks. Ant queens are estimated to live 100 times longer than solitary insects of a similar size.
