| Volcanic sponge, McMurdo Sound, Antarctica (15,000 years old): A giant volcanic sponge found in Antarctica is about 15,000 years old. The mollusk is white or pale yellow, nearly 2 meters tall and about 1.8 meters wide. The cold waters of the Antarctic Ocean help slow down the growth rate and increase the life span of the creature. |
