The Shedd Aquarium’s beloved Australian lungfish — the longest-living fish in any aquarium in the world — was euthanized on Sunday because of complications from old age, the Shedd announced on Monday.

He had been in Chicago since the Century of Progress World’s Fair in 1933, and was estimated to be “somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,” said Michelle Sattler, one of his keepers. When Granddad arrived at the Shedd, Franklin D. Roosevelt was president. The lungfish, who measured four feet and weighed 25 pounds, lived through the elections of 13 more U.S. presidents.
