From Meat Eaters World News Headquarters in Bozeman, Montana, this is Cowell's Week in Review with Ryan Cal-A.

Here's Cal.

If you're already starting to hear the mantra, New Year, new me, deep in your brain,

and the anxiety of making it stick is building, well, here's a story of encouragement for you,

and from a return guest, even. Wisdom, a lazen albatross, holds the title for the oldest known bird.

Wisdom was banded after laying an egg on Midway Atoll in 1956.

Due to the fact that Lazyan albatross are not known to breed before the age of five,

wisdom is estimated to be an impressive 74 years old. Now, for the life is

changeable affirmation part. Wisdom's return is a feat for an older bird of any kind, but there's

more. Wisdom recently lost her established mating partner. Albatross can mate for life,

you know, if nobody dies. So wisdom hasn't reproduced in a few years.

Imagine you're kind of past the prime of your life, getting a little long in the beak, so to speak.

You spend 90% of your life on or above the seas.

During this time, you travel hundreds of thousands of miles, rarely touching land. You can accumulate

as many as 13,000 miles in just a couple of weeks. So, in your 70s, you're kind of an established

part of the billion-plus Milers Club, aka you're keeping it tight. But finding a mate is not easy

and the knees are probably a little creaky.

A courtship dance that consists of up to 25 different moves must take place.

And you know what it's like when your granny tries to do the electric slide at your cousin's wedding.

Not always pretty.

And if the dancing's good enough, the prospective pair will then forage for food and build

the nest together.
