OLD SHARK

OLD SHARK

This is a 392 year old Greenland Shark that was recently
discovered in the Arctic Ocean. This guy was wandering the ocean back in 1627!

Greenland sharks, the longest living vertebrates on
Earth, which can be found off the northern coast of Ireland, could hold
the secret to long life, geneticists mapping their DNA have predicted.

The sharks, which live for up to 400 years, are believed to have unique
genes that could help explain not only their remarkably long life span
but also life expectancy in other vertebrates including humans.
