You might have seen these animals, but you've unlikely imagined they could be millions of years old! Tuatara might look like a regular iguana at first, but it’s literally a living fossil since it’s been around for about 250 million years. Jellyfish have been present on our planet for over 500 million years. Chinese Giant Salamander can grow to be bigger than an adult person, and it's been roaming our planet for 170 million years already. The sea lamprey is ancient parasitic fish that lives in the western and northern Atlantic Ocean. #brightside Credit: CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0: Solenodon: By frank wouters – https://flic.kr/p/4qjYuC, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=3763148 Babirusa 2: By HarshLight – https://flic.kr/p/LP1VNq, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=70695498 head: By belgianchocolate – https://flic.kr/p/zR8KT, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=83185521 By James St. John: fossil fish: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=84648405 jellyfish: https://flic.kr/p/Yimben, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=84650812 CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/: Gavialis gangeticus: By Matěj Baťha, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=26134298 crocodile: By Ferme aux crocodiles, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=30204667 Fish Fossil: By NobbiP, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=67506930 Jõesilmud2: By Tiit Hunt, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=17861470 Babyrousa: By Alena Houšková, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=6396729 By Betty Wills: Pallid sturgeon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Pallid_sturgeon_activity_with_syphoning.webmhd.webm teeth: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=107288149 CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0: Mother and Chilld: By Goodfriend19, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=49666794 esturgeon: By ThierryCollard, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=110502744
