Correction to: Nature 10.1038/s41586-025-09694-5 Published online 29 October 2025

In the version of the article initially published, “the” was missing from “the long-lived bowhead whale” in the title and has now been added. Additionally, in the Data Availability and Reporting Summary, the private reviewer link for the DNA and RNA-sequencing data has been removed and “at Sage Bionetworks” has been added to “Proteomics raw data have been deposited to the ELITE portal at Sage Bionetworks via Synapse...”. These corrections have been made to the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
