Well my wife and I just reached 102 years with the wolf in multiplayer! I died at like 89 but she kept going for the rest of the years. Our record before was only 62 and before that 55. Once we reached 70 we were going to just die and submit and stop but we were like, "Lets see how far we get" We've been playing nonstop almost for the past 5 days, she's addicted. Also she yelled at the dinosaurs and said "Yeah you better run!" haha she kept making dinos run away from her. She feels awesome cause she's finally doing better than me at a video game

and I have no problem with that. THIS GAME IS SO MUCH FUN!

I did it with the Hyena because I wanted the satisfaction of doing it first with my favourite animal. And boy was it a rush... once I saw that I had 98 years I just kind of waited around until it was 100 just in case I got myself stupidly killed. Still haven't had any luck with the Tuxedo though D:

Crocodile - 29 years. 3rd playthrough and didn't do that great, but still fun.

I did it with a cheetah around 106 or 107 years; I don't remember. I was starting a new generation under the park, so I managed to kill a few of the new enemies before they showed me who was taking over the jungle. I failed to unlock the next animal on that run, so I played the cheetah.again. I managed 120 years plus my first tuxedo on that run. I found a bug where those hairy guys wouldn't go through a sewer pipe near the park entrance, so I just kept getting myself some clean kills until I starved to death. My next 100+ run was with the hippo, and he earned my second tuxedo. I just played a goat and got my third tuxedo, but he didn't make it to 75. He went on a mad dash through toxic woods looking for flowers to finish his last challenge around big cats and dinos. He died shortly after finding his last flower.

Wolf for 103 years. I think I hung out in the sewers for the last twenty or so years.
I could've gotten an "All Challenges Complete", except for the fact that I couldn't reach one of my B-Rank challenges for killing 35 animals. I was actually 34 animals, really close to 35, but the whole finicky Clean Kill Lock-on thing screwed me over on a tiger. I would've made it *just* in time if it weren't for that (with the subsequent attempt to shake off 100% danger). ><
And, man. The Cavemen were pretty freaky because I didn't expect to see their numbers. I Clean Killed one and was about to eat it, but I had alerted about thirty Cavemen waaaay off to the side. XD

Just did it last night with the Pomeranian for my first time. I was just a year or two short with my tiger playthrough, but my pack and I fell to my death down the long elevator shaft at the end of the underground facility (I wanted to take the elevator, but didn't know I had to wait for it... didn't think killing myself that way was possible).

Black Panther - 107
This was also my Tuxedo run. I'd never made it past 70ish before, so I was completely surprised by the homo erectus after I spawned. I assumed I could eat them and was really shocked when I couldn't. I tried to mark and mate, but I could only find prime females and wound up getting swarmed by a huge pack of men.
How on earth does anyone make it past the homo erectus? And why can't you eat them?

102 years, Deinonychus.
I mostly focused on unlocking all the animals before i began to really play them all. I can't believe how hard the homo erectus hit! Three hits and my ENTIRE PACK of three were killed! sheesh... Still, I unlocked the tuxedo ^^

I found after my initial hundred-year playthrough that it became much easier to reach that point (and get all the trophies/missions) because I knew what to do after X amount of years.
Funny thing was I was going to try to exploit a certain number of years before the Cavemen overwhelmed me. I decided to wait at a nest with a Prime mate as long as possible with old age after year 100 (when the Cavemen start appearing), mate as late as possible, then wait until all my offspring die off of starvation. Little did I know that after I mated after the 100 year mark, the screen refreshed with many Cavemen camped around me. It was only a matter of time before my siblings walked into their field of view.

So, what was intended to be year 105 followed by a couple more years by starving a full Prime litter of Jackals away from Cavemen, it wound up to be... 105 years. XD

Almost 101 - Black Panther
Started on the 19th while the 1.5x point promotion for all animals was going on. Had to save and quit around year 34. Continued today on the 21st, no longer getting extra points, but getting 1.5x calories since the Black Panther is the new promotion. New personal high score is now above 200,000. Acquired 4th Tuxedo.
Spent the 90s in Yoyogi Park West during a rabbit multiplying event. Due to the numbers of the rabbits, my potential mates weren't showing up until year 100 after the event died out. On my way to find a mate, my pack of 5 cats ran into 3 cavemen and died; all 3 of them lived. I think it would've been so much better if they gave those guys weapons, like clubs and spears, because their unarmed strength is just so ridiculously unrealistic.
Other points of interest from this session: Defeated Ace Treasure hunter, unlocking the Pet Pack. Tino dino event; those were funny little things, but they didn't seem to be any easier than the normal sized ones. Luckily, they are easy for the panther. From the challenge list, not a single one rewarded a hunger bonus.

I've made it to 106 with the Zebra twice! What's great about the Zebra is you can run away from anything on the game, except the panther, but since there is an over abundance of cavemen, you basically have to run until you starve to death or die of old age. :\

Tosa: 116 years
Acquired another Tuxedo while in a Chicken Party

Those are always fun. Started the last generation at 97 under the park. Started 100 at the sewer entrance at the park, hung around for a little bit killing cavemen with pathing issues until half of my inventory was used, then I made a dash for the underground facility with three of us left. I lost a dog reaching the elevator down to the facility, leaving two of us to run the gauntlet. I died at the nest in the facility, leaving the last dog to finish running through all the cavemen. He made it to the elevator going back up to the park, but three cavemen made it on with him. Survived the ride up by running circles and managed to counterattack one of the cavemen. After picking up the three presents at the top, I decided to try and fight with a nail file, but I was weak and old, and fell quickly to the two cavemen before I could reach 20 years with this final generation.

Elephant: Almost 102 years
My choice of animal is currently based on locked costumes. I still needed sunglasses, so naturally, the only challenge I failed fell within those set of challenges. There was plenty of food, but I couldn't find the mushrooms that I needed.

The best way is to look at the challenges for the costume right away at the start of the game and if there are any "problematic" one like eat xy mushrooms or flowers just restart the game to get another / better ones - preferably kill / eat / go to ...
