Orange Roughy – Up To 250 Years
When you are craving seafood, you should think twice before you chew on the orange roughy. It takes a long time before it matures and grows rather slowly. Commercial fishing of this species can wreak havoc on its population. Scientists have discovered that they can determine the age of the fish by counting its ear bone growth rings. This was how they found out that the fish tends to live for more than 120 years. However, the oldest one happens to be from Tasmania and lived to be 250 years old.
