Quahogs are thick-shelled clams native to the Atlantic coast of North America and are famous for their extreme longevity. Some individuals have been discovered to be hundreds of years old, with lifespans exceeding 500 years, making them among the longest-living animals on the planet. They grow very slowly, creating shell growth rings that scientists use to study historical ocean temperatures and climate patterns. Quahogs spend most of their lives buried beneath sand or mud, quietly filtering seawater to feed on plankton and algae, which helps keep coastal ecosystems healthy. Beyond their environmental importance, quahogs have deep cultural significance and are a staple in regional dishes like clam chowder and stuffed clams.
