David Attenborough's Natural Curiosities
Young Wrinklies

David Attenborough encounters two species with wrinkly skin, where nature has tinkered with the ageing process to different effect. The mole rat retains its looks while growing old and the elephant looks old from birth, yet both creatures live relatively long lives
