Death risk rose with age in asexual Hydra oligactis

The maximum observed lifespan was approximately two years in a laboratory experiment comparing animals fed five times per week with those fed three times.The maximum observed lifespan was approximately two years in a laboratory experiment comparing animals fed five times per week with those fed three times.
