Have you ever wondered what is the longest gestation period for a bird, or what is the maximum age for a squirrel?

Well wonder no more! NIF is here to help answer these burning questions.

This week we have a couple of new sources from the aging community: AnAge and the Lifespan Observations Database.

The AnAge data set contains data based on the phylogenetic tree and users can select or search for individual species or groups of organisms from kingdom or phylum to class like rodents or birds.
