Lake Sturgeon – Up To 150 Years
You can consider this the North American version of the beluga. You will find the lake sturgeon anywhere from the Great Lakes to the Mississippi River! Sadly, it was nearly fished into extinction around a century ago. It is considered threatened or endangered in 19 out of 20 states. It fares better when it is left alone. Female ones can live up to 150 years, while males only have a lifespan of 55 years.

European Eel – Up To 155 Years
Whoa, check out the European eel in this photo. It wants nothing more than to give you a slimy hug! Even though it looks stunning, this animal has also been blessed with incredible longevity. We doubt that you ever assumed that an eel would be very old. However, these creatures actually tend to grow older than 80 years when in captivity. A Sweden family said that its eel was 155 years old when it died.
