By: Steven N. AustadStories of long-lived animal species—from thousand-year-old tubeworms to 400-year-old sharks—and what they might teach us about human health and longevity.
Opossums in the wild don’t make it to the age of three; our pet cats can live for a decade and a half; cicadas live for seventeen years (spending most of them underground). Whales, however, can live for two centuries and tubeworms for several millennia. Meanwhile, human life expectancy tops out around the mid-eighties, with some outliers living past 100 or even 110. Is there anything humans can learn from the exceptional longevity of some animals in the wild? In Methusaleh’s Zoo, Steven Austad tells the stories of some extraordinary animals, considering why, for example, animal species that fly live longer than earthbound species and why animals found in the ocean live longest of all.
Austad—the leading authority on longevity in animals—argues that the best way we will learn from these long-lived animals is by studying them in the wild. Accordingly, he proceeds habitat by habitat, examining animals that spend most of their lives in the air, comparing insects, birds, and bats; animals that live on, and under, the ground—from mole rats to elephants; and animals that live in the sea, including quahogs, carp, and dolphins.
Humans have dramatically increased their lifespan with only a limited increase in healthspan; we’re more and more prone to diseases as we grow older. By contrast, these species have successfully avoided both environmental hazards and the depredations of aging. Can we be more like them?

Great Quality and Comfortable Fit
Size: Large, Color: Washed Blue
I picked up the Amazon Essentials Men’s Golf Polo Shirt, and I’m really impressed. The fabric is soft, breathable, and lightweight — perfect for hot days on the golf course or casual wear.
The fit is spot-on, not too tight or too loose, and it looks sharp tucked in or out. It’s held up well after multiple washes without shrinking or losing shape. For the price, it’s excellent quality and a great value.
If you need a reliable, comfortable polo for sports or everyday wear, this one is a solid choice. Highly recommend!

Good quality, but runs a bit short
Size: X-Large, Color: Light Grey Heather
Overall, this is a solid polo for the price. The fabric quality is better than expected, with a nice balance of softness and durability. It’s not paper-thin, but not heavy either, and it does a good job wicking moisture and drying quickly, which is exactly what you want from a golf-style shirt. Functionally, it works well for casual wear, work, or being mildly athletic without committing to actual exercise.
Sizing is mostly on point, and I didn't notice any shrinkage after washing, but I always make sure to air dry this type of material and not throw it in the dryer. My only real gripe is the length. It feels like the shirt should be about 1–2 inches longer. If you raise your arms, people may catch a glimpse of your six-pack (hopefully), and if you bend over… well, let’s just say you'll want to be mindful of who's behind you. If Amazon fixed the length, this would be an easy five-star staple.
