I don’t allow my kids to listen to the Dave Matthews Band, there’s too much sax and violins.

Greenland sharks are the longest-living vertebrates known, with some likely reaching 500 years old. They don't even reach sexual maturity until age 150. I'll save the secret of their longevity for another time, though. I want to talk about how we KNOW they're a half-millennium old.

A Greenland shark is centered in a heavily cropped photo of a shark in the very green-tinted water. The shark looks grey and mottled, with slightly off-color eye that suggests blindness common in this species, and a white mottling on the belly. The dorsal fin looks small from the perspective. Not sure who to credit, the source photo was located here: https://sharkangels.org/greenland-sharks-are-how-old/ possibly the author, "Jackie Reuder, M.S. Graduate Student"
