you know what i did in english class? I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

they can make speculations.
like they say if a human lives on a low calorie diet consisting of mainly vegetables a human can live 120 years (non freak occurrence)
they can make assumptions from organ deterioration and metabolism and such.

Maybe they caught a baby sea turtle. Kept it in a aquarium and see how long until it died?

Currently there is not an adequate method of aging sea turtles. The most accepted method, aside from observing a turtle from the time it hatches, is to study growth rings of the scales on the carapace and plastron. Scientists count the rings and use a mathematical formula to estimate a turtle's age.

I know with fish they do calculations based on metabolic rates and organ decline to calculate expected life spans.
Such as Arowana's that sell for 50+ thousand dollars.

when I was really into aquariums (not out of it completely) someone I know and have met built a 50 and 15k gal aquarium and another person who lives 10km from him made a crocidle and arowana enclousure)
monsterfishkeepers is a crazy forum if your into that shit.
I have the glass for a 1000/1080gal aquarium build just waiting to have a pernament residence, shit's costing me $20 a month to store.

It doesn't happen to be because they are the same creature does it?

they're all the same but the asian ones don't need to get their food from jumping so I guess they never adapted to jumping for food.

it probably tastes good for a fish
it seems to be a lean fish and it's one of the more aggresive ones
you can buy a small silver one for 50$ and eat that when it's bigger if you really wanna know...
