ReplyDeleteWell done on completing another Summer Learning Journey. Are you enjoying the programme? Ka pai for figuring out if the facts were true or false. I did some research and you are right, Herman the Sturgeon is the oldest confirmed fish. But there are two fish that lived longer but their ages aren’t 100% confirmed. Here’s the link to an article of the five oldest known fish: http://www.oldest.org/animals/aquarium-fish/
