The rodent that bends the ageing curve.

Here's the strange part.

Naked mole-rats have an unusual relationship with the ageing curve. Researchers examining captive records did not detect the familiar age-related rise in mortality across the well-observed ages. That is genuinely interesting, especially for such a small mammal. But the older-age data were thinner, and a flat pattern in a dataset is not a lifetime subscription to immortality.
