Hey, you!
Are you ready for something to
BLOW YOUR MIND?
Because Knowing Nature presents, without farther ado, the
TARDIGRADE !
The tardigrade is a tiny invertebrate, only about the size of a period at the end of this sentance. They have a special skill to survive in dangerous places.
In extreme places such as deserts, deep under the sea, in ice, in boiling water, and outer space, there they are. At 304 degrees f , there they are. At -459 degrees f, there they are. After 10 years without food or water, there they are.
So, what's their trick? Tardigrades live in damp enviorments like moss or water. When the going gets tough, they dry out. Once the're rehydrated, they resume thier buisness like nothing happened; even after a century of deactivation. They've even been around since before dinosaurs, thanks to that special ability!!
