Reply to comment by Flintly in After about the first 17% of our lives, humans reach peak natural physical performance/potential (about age 17-18) and then the rest of our lives we degrade. But a deer for example can live to about 17.5 years and after 1st 25% (age 4-5) of their life they are beasts of max strength. by Charisma_Modifier
