Among the longest-lived birds are: 1  Parrots - various species of parrots live from 40 to over 100 years. 2  Cockatoos can live for about 75 years. 3  Macaws live for over 60-70 years in captivity.
We determine species life spans usually from captive animals because we can track their ages. So, that's how I arrived at the answer--from animals in captivity. The longest-lived captive animal is the giant tortoise (177 years) and the shortest, the gastrotich (3 days). By the way, Forest Preserve District of Cook County presents examples of extreme old age in a nature bulletin (No. 486-A, dated March 24, 1973).
