The world's longest animal ever found was a Lineus Longissimus which washed upon the shore of Scotland in the late 1800's
Better known as the Ribbon Worm, it measure 180 feet in length, beating out the longest Dinosaur and the Blue Whale for the title
If you meant oldest then...
It's Harriet a giant Galapagos land tortoise. Funnily enough she turns 175 years old today. So Happy Birthday Harriet!!!
Of course both of these depend on how you classify animal too. Hope I have answered your question and the links to the info I provided are below.

What is the Longest Lived Animal?
A new study has concluded that the red sea urchin, a small spiny invertebrate that lives in shallow coastal waters, is among the longest living animals on Earth--they can live to be 100 years old, and some may reach 200 years or more in good health with few signs of age. No animal lives forever, but red sea urchins appear to be practically immortal. They can die from attacks by predators, specific diseases or being harvested by fishermen. But even then they show very few signs of age. This small marine animal, which is found in shallow Pacific Ocean coastal waters from Alaska to Baja California and also elsewhere in the world's oceans, lives by grazing quietly on marine plants and deterring most predators with its pointy spines. Historically, it had been considered a nuisance.

Depends on whether you ask a creationist or evolutionist that question because the evolutionist have come up with some humdingers. But some giant tortoises have lived to be over 200 years old so I think they take first place.
1. Giant tortoise: up to 200 years
2. Sturgeon (a type of fish): up to 100
3. Blue whale and golden eagle: up to 80
4. African elephant: up to 77

The lifespan of the giant tortoise is about 150 years, making it the longest-living animal on the planet. In captivity, some giant tortoises have lived as long as 177 years.

It's the Galapagos giant tortoise. According to Wikipedia they live 150-200 years. One of them that was captured by Charles Darwin himself in Galapagos just died a few months ago.

Did you mean longest-living, like most answers seem to be?
I thought you meant the living animal that was the longest, so I was going for some kind of snake, unless that underground fungus stuff counts
