The article implies that an individual "brown wormlike creature" is more than 130 years old, I wonder if that is literal or they just mean that ancient desiccated eggs lay dormant for that long and were successfully revived. I know nematodes were revived after millennia in the Siberian permafrost, but the Toronto wetlands are hardly that.
