In a similar vein, how about the Coelacanth? (The 400,000,000 year old fish
thought to have disappeared along with the dinosaurs which is alive and
well.)

How about forgetting animals altogether?  I'd suggest a human -- Strom
Thurmond.  Think about it -- every time you hear the name, somebody says "I
thought he was dead".  He's been around a long time, yet continues to work.
He's based on many outdated concepts, yet manages to adapt to changing
circumstance.  The people of the great state of South Carolina voted him in
yet again, despite the fact that many thought that he would die prior to the
end of his term.  Like a bad penny, both RPG and Strom keep coming back
:)...
