Tardigrada, collected by the Lake Survey
By James Murray (1907) (pdf)
They have been found in diverse regions of Earth's biosphere – mountaintops,
the deep sea, tropical rainforests, and the Antarctic. Tardigrades are among
the most resilient animals known, with individual species able to survive
extreme conditions – such as exposure to extreme temperatures, extreme
pressures (both high and low), air deprivation, radiation, dehydration, and
starvation – that would quickly kill most other known forms of life.
Tardigrades have survived exposure to outer space.
