reding blog: 12-7-08- WORLD'S OLDEST ANIMALS

I was online looking at random news articles and I found one that seemed pretty interesting. It's from the website: Telegraph.co.uk. and the article is titled: World's oldest animals by Daily Telegraph reporter. It talks about 8 animals who are supposed to be the oldest of their type. What I found the most interesting was that they classified a clam as a pet. The clam was thought to have been around 410 years old!! It was passed on from family to family in Iceland were it had its own aquarium type living space. Another of my favorites was the Rabbit named George from Tewksbury, Massachusetts who was fourteen years old. The average life expectancy of a rabbit is six to eight years, which made George about 160 years in human years!

why yes alex a blog about animals is very inspiriting. Without them, our world would suffer intolerable consequences, not like you contemplated that. Well lets see here, your last blog post was about how magazines and tabloids encouraged a perfect body image which many people know, very exciting. In my blog you made your first comment! YOU MUST BE SO OSTENTATIOUS FOR YOURSELF!! By the way you must have been inebriated when you wrote this response due to the fact that the depth and quality of this post just doesn't match up to the other ones. :0
