The Oldest Living Organism

The oldest living organism on Earth is a Great Basin bristlecone pine tree named Methuselah, which is over 4,800 years old. It's located in the White Mountains of California and was discovered in 1957. The tree's exact location is kept secret to protect it from vandalism. The slow growth rate of these trees, combined with their ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions, has allowed them to survive for thousands of years. The wood of bristlecone pines is also highly resistant to decay, which helps the trees survive even longer.
