well, especially the Greenland shark has a very slow metabolism, large, and can produce offspring over a long period. So you have these opposite extremes. And the interesting twist on this are bats. So bats weigh about the same as a mouse, the same size as a mouse, but can live 10 to 20 times as long. And the reason is bats can fly, so they can escape predation.
