For free-ranging dogs, less than 1 in 5 reach sexual maturity, [78] and the median life expectancy for feral dogs is less than half of dogs living with humans. [ 79 ] Reproduction
16 x ln( the natural logarithm of your dog’s age in "human years") + 31. Confused? Here's an example. Say you have a 4-year-old Labrador named Comet — with the new equation, Comet's real "dog ...
Rats, mice, and hamsters experience maximum life-span extension from a diet that contains all of the nutrients but only 40–60% of the calories that the animals consume when they can eat as much as they want. Mean life span is increased 65% and maximum life span is increased 50%, when caloric restriction is begun just before puberty. [57]
If true, this would challenges the common belief [3] [4] in existence of a fixed maximal human life span. Biodemographic studies have found that even genetically identical laboratory animals kept in constant environment have very different lengths of life, suggesting a crucial role of chance and early-life developmental noise in longevity ...
