Most animals live longer than seems reasonable. There a spider that lives in the corner of my garden shed and it still there after five years.

Herring gulls in extreme cases can live into their 30s. There's probably a haggard old gull somewhere which remembers the '90s.

No gulls remember the 90's, they barely remember yesterday

Not necessarily true, they're clever birds and can certainly hold grudges.

Some tarantula species can live up to +20 years old, I have read even claims of +30.

Also big parrots might be able to live up to +80, though the exact numbers are unconfirmed for parrots, as they are living longer and longer in captivity, as our knowledge on how to keep them well gets better and better.

Otoh small songbirds seldom live beyond 3 years in the wild :(
