Male life span shortened by male-male interactionsDH, GemsDL, Riddle
Discerning the relationship between sociality and longevity would permit a deeper understanding of how animal life history evolved. Here, we perform a phylogenetic comparative analysis of ~1000 mammalian species on three states of social organization (so
The average lifespan of an elephant can vary significantly based on the species of the elephant in question, as well as the habitat in which the elephant lives.
was Kakusanda. He lived when the lifespan of man was 40,000 years and when the first darkening of the golden age became evident because of a king's lack of concern and the occurrence of the first theft. Because of that, man's vital energy...
Disability-free life expectancy (DFLE) has been used to gain a better understanding of the population’s quality of life. The authors aimed to estimate age and sex-specific disability-free life expectancy (DFLE) for urban and rural areas of Bangladesh, a
As a rule, large whales have north and south seasonalmigrations, spending summers in high latitudes near the poles, where there is anabundantfood supply, and moving toward the Equator in the fall to breed. Some populations of these species, however, reside in one locality all year. One of ...
25 provide the building blocks for a more comprehensive and generalizable approach to age-normed quantification of MRI phenotypes over the entire lifespan (see Supplementary Information 1 for details and consideration of previous work focused on the related but distinct objective of inferring brain age...
The lone character of this highly-anticipated scene is a 40-year-old male Asian elephant named Babu. The average lifespan of elephants is about 50 to 70 years. Weighing four tonnes, Babu is about to eat brunch. Unlike other Asian elephants who are able to put food in their mouth by mer...
When questioned about whether he felt he had a good life in care homes, a 95-year-old male Danish care resident responded with: “and I didn't have anywhere to go……But it's not the home here… the home here” which is another example demonstrating how the older resident disliked liv...
The knockout mice exhibit a progressive reduction in skeletal muscle mass, impairment of motor function and systemic insulin sensitivity. They also show osteopenia, and reduced lifespan largely due to death from debilitation on normal chow and death from tumor on high-fat diet. These phenotypes ...
