I’m sure they remember you up in the mountains.

I hope they do. It's been so long now, that I wonder if any of them peligots I knew are still alive. I'm not sure how long they live, but I know a lot of sloths and apes live around 20 years.

I don't know the specific ages for each primate and sloth as I'm a cat person and mostly watch stuff about all varieties of cats in the world but many animals live nearly as long as we do, some longer. Parrots can live to be 80 and lobsters crazily enough over 100 right? Some sharks have been found to be 500 they say and I'm fairly certain some primates other than us live over 40. Orangutans spend 8 to 10 years actively raising a single baby before sending it out in the world. They have to live a pretty long life to do that for each child.

I officially declare a peligots age to be 103. Settled. They are fine.
