I think the Bristlecone thing is under some dispute. Some claim that Yew trees can live over five thousand years. There are also Olive trees in Europe that are believed to be up to four thousand years old, and some have been confirmed to be two-to-three thousand years old .

In Africa, a lot of tribes catch beetles, caterpillars, and other insects. Then they roast them for a well pleasing snack. Just like we eat potato chips or pretzels.
