Scientists didn't actually kill the world's oldest animal, a clam, just to find out how old it was. Shell valves from a specimen of Arctica islandica that was found to have lived for approximately 507 years are pictured here.

Salmon Life Cycle. Salmon have a lifespan of three to eight years. Salmon are a kind of âsuper fishâ that can live in both fresh water and salt water, and might travel hundreds or even thousands of miles over a lifetime! Salmon are born in fresh water and most live their adult lives in the ocean. Then they make an incredible upstream journey to spawn (lay eggs) in the same places that they were hatched. Only Kokanee salmon do not make this journey; they live their whole lives in a freshwater stream or lake. spawn through hatch. At two to seven years old, salmon are ready to spawn.
