Fox News
New research on menopause in whales reveals that females of these species live significantly longer after their reproductive years compared to non-menopausal species.
The scientists compared the lifespans of 32 toothed whale species. They found that in the five menopausal species - killer whales, false killer whales, beluga whales, narwhals and short-finned pilot whales - the females live about four decades longer than the females of non-menopausal species of similar size.
