On a similar theme to the longevity of males: Is the menopause confined to humans? primates? mammals? Is it a feature of longevity - would all female animals have one if they survived long enough? or Is there a selective advantage to having a menopause - would females with a menopause leave more breeding progeny than those without? (and of course, would men live longer with one?) J. Tardivel
