Comparison of mortality rates, human, medflies, fruit flies, worms, yeast and automobiles, Vaupel et al. 1998 Science

Vaupel et al. 1998 Science plotted the death rate (mortality rate) for human, medflies, wasps, fruit flies, worms, yeast, and automobiles in its Figure 3.  The plot on human was zoomed in to between age 80 and 120, because the Vaupel98Sci seem to emphasize the late life differences.

A Scholar search shows many engineering hits on automobile and Weibull modeling.
