Noah's Ark

In the story of Noah's ark, God decides to purge the Earth and restart, as he was disappointed in humanity as a whole. In order to do this, he asks Noah to create an ark that would hold two of each animal so that they could repopulate the world to create a fresh start. After this is done, forty days and nights of rain come and cause what honestly was an apocalypse. After it was over, the many animals left the ark to find a new world that they immediately began repopulating.

One animal that fascinates me is the hydra. While it is extremely simple and prehistoric, there is one distinguishing trait of the hydra. Evidence suggests that hydras do not necessarily have a lifespan. While some hydras do die, the main body of evidence suggests that a hydra in the right conditions could live forever. What this asks is whether other animals may eventually adopt a trait similar to this. I am unsure whether people living forever would be positive or negative situation, but it is particularly unlikely that it will happen naturally
