Actually, it's not accurate to say that dog's life is 7 years to ours, because dogs have different life expectancies. As a rule, I have been lead to believe that, the larger the dog the less it's life expectancy is, relatively. Apparantly cats can live about 15+ years now, but this depends on whether they enjoy being outdoors or indoors more

In the wild, a gorilla can live up to 50 years or so. In captivity, about 54 years. Koko will probably live longer because she can communicate any health problems she may have.

A BBC news article based upon University studies explains:\n\nSecrets of womens longer lives (Thursday, 19 September, 2002, 17:57 GMT 18:57 UK)\n\nWomen on average live at least five years more than men - Men may have shorter lives than women because they are naturally less able to fight off bacterial infections, suggests research. This key difference appears to exist in many types of animals, including many mammals, according to a study carried out at the University of Stirling. \n\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/2268641.stm

In captivity, indoor cats typically live 14 to 20 years, though the oldest-known cat lived to age 36. Domestic cats tend to live longer if they are not permitted to go outdoors (reducing the risk of injury from fights or accidents) and if they are spayed or neutered. Spaying and neutering a cat also decreases the risk of testicular and ovarian cancer, and female cats spayed before their first litter benefit from reduced risk of mammary cancer. Feral cats living in modern urban environments often live only two years, or less. Feral cats in maintained colonies can live much longer; the British Cat Action Trust reported a 19-year-old feral female. The oldest feral cat was Mark who was maintained by the British charity Cats Protection and who reached 26 years of age.

The Giant Tortoise lives the longest, about 177 years in captivity, and the gastrotrich (a minute aquatic animal) lives the shortest--as short as a three days.

Husbands.  (haha) \nI believe female octopusses (what IS the plural? Octopi?) only mate once in their lives. They die caring for their babies.\nMany animals are seasonal and only have one litter a year, depending on the climate.

Half of their life is spent underwater eating underwater things.  The rest of their life is spent out of water eating out of water things.  They occupy two niches in thier life.  So essentially they live as two animals in their life.  Kind of like how Whitney Houston lived most of her life as the greatest diva ever, and the rest as a good punchline for drug abuse jokes.

no.  the more complex an organism, the easier they go extinct.\n\ntrilobites lasted around 300 million years; a not-so-complex animal.\n\ndinosaurs lasted about 150 million years; more complex, shorter reign.\n\nhumans, we haven't even come CLOSE to how long dinosaurs we around, we'll go extinct soon enough.

The Emperor Penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri), at 1.1 meters (3 ft 9 in) tall and 30 kilograms (75 lb) in weight, is the tallest and heaviest of all penguins. It is the only penguin that breeds during the winter in Antarctica. Emperor Penguins eat mainly crustaceans (such as krill) but also indulge in consuming small fish and squid. In the wild, Emperor Penguins typically live for 20 years, but some records indicate a maximum lifespan of around 40 years. (The Emperor Penguin should not be confused with the King Penguin or the Royal Penguin.)\n\n\n\nPhysical characteristics\n\nAdults average about 1.1 metres (3 ft 9 in) and weigh 30 kilograms (75 lb) or more. The head and wings are black, the abdomen white, back bluish grey, bill purplish pink. On the sides of the neck, there are two golden circular stripes.\n\nLike the King Penguin counterpart, a male Emperor Penguin has an abdominal fold, the "brood pouch", between its legs and lower abdomen.\n\nEmperor penguin chicks are covered with a thick layer of light gray down. This covering ensures that they retain as much heat as possible, vital at this early stage when they are not capable of maintaining their body temperature. In addition, the infant emperor penguin's orbital area is covered in white downy feathers, unlike the all-black feathered head of the adult.\n\nA distinguishing characteristic between males and females is their call.\n\n\n\nEcology and behaviour\nEmperor Penguins, Ross Sea, Antarctica.\n\nEmperor Penguins are social animals, both foraging and nesting in groups. In severe weather the penguins huddle together for protection. They may be active day or night. Sexually mature adults travel throughout most of the year between the nesting area and foraging areas in the ocean. From January to March, Emperor Penguins disperse into the oceans, traveling and foraging in groups.\n\nTo find food, these penguins need to dive 150 to 250 meters (490-820 feet) into the Southern Ocean. The penguins can venture deeper, the deepest diving on record being 565 m (1870 ft). The longest they can hold their breath when underwater is 20 minutes. Their swimming speed is 6 km to 9 km per hour (4-6 mph), but they can achieve up to 19 km per hour (12 mph) in short bursts.\n\nOn land they alternate between walking with a wobbling gait and sliding over the ice on their bellies, propelled by their feet and their flipper-like wings. During the beginning of the Antarctic winter, in March and April, all mature Emperor penguins travel to colonial nesting areas, often walking 50 to 120 km from the edge of the pack ice.\n\nIn response to the cold, emperor penguins stand in compact huddles ranging in size between ten and many hundreds of birds, each leaning forward on a neighbor. Those on the outside tend to face inward and push slowly forward. This produces a slow churning action, giving each bird a turn on the inside.\n\nIn the wild, Penguin predators include Antarctic giant petrels, (Macronectes giganteus), Leopard seals, orca, skua, and sharks. Abandoned sled dogs and their progeny formerly preyed upon penguins before the removal of dogs from Antarctica.\n\n\n\n\nReproduction\n\nEmperor Penguins first begin to breed at approximately five years of age. Emperor penguins travel about 90 km inland to reach the breeding site. In March or April, the penguins start courtship, when the temperature can be as low as -40 degrees C (-40°F). Emperor penguins are serially monogamous. They have only one mate each year, and keep faithfully to that one other penguin, but each year, most choose different mates. In May or June, the female penguin lays one 450-gram (1 pound) egg, but at this point her nutritional reserves are exhausted and she must immediately return to the sea to feed. Very carefully, she transfers the egg to the male penguin, who will incubate the egg in his brood pouch for about 65 days consecutively without food by surviving on his fat reserves and spending the majority of the time

Most walruses have 18 teeth.  We only see the two elongated tusks.

it depends on what kind of fly it is.  some flys life expectancy is 24 hours,  i do believe that a normal house fly though will typically live 48 hours.

One year and 10 months old.  \n\nYou take 1 million minutes, divide by 60 to get how many hours they have lived, divide by 24 to get how many days they have lived, divide by 365 to get how many years they have lived.  You arrive at 1.9 years, which is the same as 1 year 10 months.

Black-footed ferrets have been known to live up to 12 years in captivity.As far as out in the wild where they belong, there isn't much known about them, and currently since they are on the endangered list, there is captive breeding going on to introduce them back into the wild.\nAs far as the domestic ferret is concerned, lifespan is variable anywhere from 6 years and up.  All the yrs I have been an owner, the longest I had one was 10 years but I have heard of some though rare reaching 12.

Squirrels in captivity have lived to be twenty years old.   Most Gray squirrels will die before their first birthday.If they survive their first year,  they should live five or six more years

About one week depending on the species.
