Problem with the Tardigrades, is that despite being resistent to many things, most of it is not the usual cause of death for tardigrades, that is of course their predators, and tardigrades do not have good defense mechanisms against them which is pretty ironic.
For the record, these sorts of videos is why I love this channel. Yes, I really love the debunking videos, but knowing that clicking on your content will never result in being fed BS is my favorite aspect of your channel and content.
It's so interesting how people have fallen in love with this microscopic creature. It really is kind of adorable in an odd way.

I’ve never heard the term “moss piglets” but I love it! Is that term commonly used? Are some species called water bears and others called moss piglets, or is the whole group called water bears by some, and called moss piglets by others?
Both names are very common, although "moss piglet" is generally only used for Eutardigrades, which are almost all fresh water and semi-terrestrial; living in, well, moss. Heterotardigrades are almost all marine, so they dont get that nickname haha. I would highly suggest looking into them! They have a significantly wider range of diversity in terms of their body plans, despite a much smaller number of individuals being found. Theyre really neat to look into, but they aren't studied as much since theyre harder to find.
Thanks Dave. I wonder whether they do share a lot of their genome with Arthropods, or are placed parallel to them as a result of convergent evolution. It would be remarkable, if tardigrades are found elsewhere in the solar system.
hey professor dave! i recently read the novel Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir, and was wondering if the Astrophage mentioned in it is scientifically plausible. I gathered that it's probably not very possible, but Im just curious how much of it is accurate. I know this is right up your alley, and so when you can, i will appreciate you talking about these little organisms!
Notice how no one engages with that? Yea. So the flat earth thing is old. It’s not a serious topic. It’s just not. So less and less people will debate you anymore just like in this case and it will get less and less and less until no one speaks about a flat earth anymore. It is l due to humanity educating themselves with the knowledge that a flat earth or any flat planet, moon or small planet doesn’t exist in the natural world from what evidence we have up to now. We haven’t found one yet I should say.
Professor Dave can you please make a video explaining Aurora Borealis? 🙏 Nobody ever explains things as well as you, you are my science king, pls help me understand it 🥺👉👈

Hello Professor Dave, I love your show! Water Bears are so weird looking!

I saw this movie where this alien had acid for blood so that when it got shot up by all of America's best guns the acid would fly out and land on the space marines.

If a tardigrade can un-tardigrade, them he can re-tardigrade
@@zatoichiMiyamoto Let's call it retardigradation.
My mind is blown.
God will do the same to people who don't believe him 🙏 /s

Amazing how such a small organism still has some of the complex features associated with large animals.
I love Tardigrades
Tardigrades FTW!
"Awesome video, Professor Dave! Clear and engaging as always.
this creatures look scary as hell can you imagine if they were at human size
Dunno… they look adorably cute to me! They look like they would be very cuddly if they were human size.
Well kinda lol, a regular bear
Look at them through an optical microscope. That way you can see their eyes

"Don't do that; don't give me -hope- nightmares"
Thanks professor Dave! I love you’re videos. You make me want to pursue knowledge on all of the fields of science.
I've been most anticipated for the Arthropods, since they make up 80% of all animal species, which makes them the most successful animal phylum.
It's so interesting how people have fallen in love with this microscopic creature. It really is kind of adorable in an odd way.

This is exactly what I need today. 🤓

What up professor!
What cool creatures!!
I love Water Bears! WOOHOO!
Thank you Professor Dave!
Love this show. Nature is astounding. Thanks Dave :)
This seemingly humble creature actually deserves the title of king of the animals!
I love this series!
Fascinating, thank-you!
Tardigrades!!!!!!! They're so awesome!
should we send this to Kent Hovid, or just say all these were also on the big boat that bobbed around the waters for a month or so?
Pretty sure Hovind would say they weren't on the ark cause they don't have "the breath of life"
This looks like Roland from the recent Garfield movie! Studying evolution right now - so on a serious note this is also very cool!
I’ve never heard the term “moss piglets” but I love it! Is that term commonly used? Are some species called water bears and others called moss piglets, or is the whole group called water bears by some, and called moss piglets by others?
The nicknames are interchangeable... at least that's how I've heard them used for the last 20 years or so.

The channel "Real Science" did a great video covering both types in more detail
Water bears are the cutest thing on earth ❤
My spirit animal
This is my favorite ❤❤
Thank you
Thanks
this is great, thanks
Oh yes a face only a mother could love 😊
Interesting fact; if you add Lye and a plugged in hair iron to the water they will rapidly evolve.
Do they have suction cups?
Thanks Dave. I wonder whether they do share a lot of their genome with Arthropods, or are placed parallel to them as a result of convergent evolution. It would be remarkable, if tardigrades are found elsewhere in the solar system.
I originally thought water bears were arachnids because of their 8 legs but I didn’t realize they belong to their own classification!

Cockroaches got nothing on the tardigrades. Now.... can they use cosmic fungus to travel faster than light?
Tubular Mouth is my new band name
Neat!
Pretty impressed that they can live everywhere and in all different climates on our flat earth.

@@mattorr2256 I don't think we ever will find one. It doesn't agree with gravity.
Looks like a girl I once went on a double blind date with in college. She had a great personality.
The inspiration for the Trisolarans. By the way, are they iteroparous?
Stuff of nightmares. Long live water bears far, far, away from me.

Why don’t armored tardigrades ever get any love?
Maybe I missed it, but there was no mention of Paul.

Hey, friend
The most gangster Phylum. Hope they never reach the size of a field mouse
Pro tip : it is funny when you add the prefix re- to tardigrades.
Velvet worms soon
TARDIGRADES ARE THE BEST ANIMAL I DONT TAKE CRITICISM

I'm returning as one of these 😂

It reminds me of Toji's worm🐛
Welp, something new to look up.
They are .5 millimeter long?

We have DNA in common with literally all animals.
You even share some with a banana tree.
0.5mm ???
hmmmmmmmmm
im afraid i wont be watching any videos involving anything with the word "worm" in it
STD is not startrek!
what the hell is that thing
What if they are the creatures that originally colonized our planet.
That aren’t we know this because there are remnants and evidence of earlier life forms on earth
