The lifespan of most creatures is tied to its heart; small animals, such as mice, have very rapid heartbeats; because they are smaller, they lose heat faster, so their heart has to pump blood faster in order to maintain a normal internal temperature. Large animals, like elephants, have very slow heartbeats because their larger body retains more heat for a longer period of time; therefore, they live longer.
The faster the heartbeat- the shorter their lifespan; the slower the heartbeat- the longer the lifespan.
