    if you're speaking in terms of evolution, every species has been evolving for the same amount of time! A plankton is as "evolved" as a human

    if you mean which has the longest lifespan, Greenland Sharks can live over 200 years, as do Bowhead whales, and a tiny oyster-like animal can live for 400 or more years.

    I recently read that a zoo in the U.K. was transferring a sea turtle to a zoo in Australia. The animal was returned to the U.K. by Charles Darwin. It's age was estimated to be 250 years.
