Habitat: deep in the North Atlantic and the cold surface waters of the Arctic
Fish that were alive during the Age of Enlightenment are still swimming strong. A Greenland shark has lived at least 272 years, making the species the longest-lived vertebrate in the world – smashing the previous record held by a 211-year-old bowhead whale. But it may have been as old as 500 years.
Tardigrades (/ˈtɑːrdɪɡreɪd/, also known colloquially as water bears or moss piglets) are a phylum of water-dwelling eight-legged segmented micro-animals. They were first described by the German zoologist Johann August Ephraim Goeze in 1773, who gave them the name of "little water bears".
