Meet the tardigrade—a tiny, nearly indestructible creature, and one of the stars of the upcoming exhibition, Life at the Limits: Stories of Amazing Species, opening 4/4.
Typically found near water, tardigrades can survive just about anywhere, from the bottom of the ocean, to a Himalayan mountain, to the surface of a glacier. “They can survive the loss of almost 100% of their water,” said Dr. Mark Siddall, a parasitologist and curator of the upcoming exhibition. Tardigrades even survived when they were blasted into space and left outside in the subzero, oxygen-deprived vacuum for 10 days.
Pictured is Paramacrobiotus craterlaki, a carnivorous tardigrade found living in moss at a crater lake in Kenya.
