Wow! What a close poll outcome! In regards to what whale species is documented to live longer, 47% said it was the bowhead whale and 53% said it was the blue whale! Drumroll please............... The correct answer is the bowhead whale!!!! While a blue whale has been documented to live to 110 years old, the discovery of 19th century stone harpoon points in the skull of a bowhead whale have shown that they can live to be over 200 years old!! This is one of the longest living mammals ever recorded! How amazing is that? Thanks for playing everyone! #bowheadwhale #beanmuseum #animalsaretoocool
