Tardigrade

In the lockdown I have been learning about tardigrades so in this blog post will teach you about them.        

Tardigrades are 8 legged micro-animals and they are just viewable to the naked eye.

  • Tardigrades can survive up to 30 years without food or water!
  • Tardigrades can survive in minus 273 degrees!
  • Tardigrades can survive a nuclear explosion!
  • Tardigrades can survive in up to 150 degrees!
  • Tardigrades can survive radiation!
  • Tardigrades are 0.5 mm.
I hope you have learnt a lot about tardigrades.

  1. Kia ora Noah. I clicked on you blog post because I'd heard the word tardigrade before but didn't know what they were. Wow, they really do show resilience don't they! Maybe you could boost you blog post with some images? Or by making a quiz using these facts?

  2. They look like something out of a low budget sci fi movie. Interesting facts. Have you seen one before?

  3. I wonder if there are any tardigrades living around our house. Maybe we should go looking for some in the holidays.
