Some other animals
| Animal | Lifespan | Breeding Frequency | Potential Generations They Can Witness|
|---------------|-------------------|----------------------------|---------------------------------------|
| Turtles | Over 100 years | Every few years | 10-20 generations |
| Whales | Over 200 years | Every 2-5 years | 20-30 generations |
| Koi Fish | Over 200 years | Multiple times a year | 30-50 generations |
| Elephants | 60-70 years | Every 4-5 years | 10-15 generations |
Forget about trees, which breed annually and you can find 10-100+ generations around a mother tree; fungi (similar); or bacteria, which can witness 1000+ generations in its lifetime
