jaguarnoelle for noticing and reminding me. I forgot to announce this one a few days back. I've been kinda busy for a while so it slipped my mind. I'm hoping to finish another cartoon today.
The waterbear (also known as the tardigrade) is possibly the cutest of all microscopic creatures. Some grow up to one and a half millimeters long -- big enough to see with the naked eye. They were named "waterbears" because their movements resemble those of bears -- yes, really. It is quite uncanny. They are astonishingly able to survive the most extreme environments, such as boiling in alcohol, drying out, very high levels of radiation, and even the vacuum of space. Now their ability to survive may help us.
