Chinese news media is claiming that scientists have discovered a huge salamander in a cave in southwestern China.
It measures 4 feet, 7 inches long and weighs 115 pounds. Wildlife
experts claim that it's probably about 200 years old, which would make
it the oldest living creature on the planet. This would take that title
away from Jonathan, the 183-year old tortoise on the island of St. Helena.
The salamander is now resting in a contained pool where he can be further studied.
