  1. class tardigrada

    Class Tardigrada, also known as water bears or moss piglets, is a phylum of small and water-dwelling micro-animals. They are extremely resilient and can survive extreme conditions that would be instantly lethal to most other known life forms. Tardigrades are notable for being perhaps the most durable of known organisms; they are capable of withstanding temperature ranges from 1 K (−458 °F; −272 °C) to about 420 K (300 °F; 150 °C), pressures about six times greater than those found in the deepest ocean trenches, ionizing radiation at doses hundreds of times higher than the lethal dose for a human, and the vacuum of outer space. Their body has a barrel shape, four pairs of stubby legs, and they range in size from 0.3 to 1.2 mm long. Tardigrades were first described by Johann August Ephraim Goeze in 1773.
