The Tardigrade , the world's toughest organism
Tardigrades, often called “water bears” because of their stumpy appearance, are water-dwelling, eight legged, segmented micro animals.
They can be found just about everywhere: mountaintops, the deep sea, tropical rain forests and the polar regions. They’re noted for being able to withstand
extreme conditions that would otherwise be fatal to nearly all other known life forms.
