My favorite animal.
I have been ricocheting my way through life sleeping a ridiculous amount of time every so often and not at all on other days. Two lovely men in my life told me that sleeping 14 hours is better than not sleeping at all. After sleeping maybe an hour today, I would have to say I still disagree. Yesterday was a godawful waste of time. I only woke up because my father said "dinnertime." Not depressing at all. I am a bear. A hiberating water bear. My favorite animal. There should be an exhibit at the zoo that is a chair and a table with a microscope on it and a slide with a water bear in it. Moss piglet is another name for my favorite little aminal.
"Water Bears have developed an interesting way to survive if the moss they live in dries up. It is called an "antibiotic state." Since they need moisture to live, if a moss dries up, the Water Bear becomes inactive, almost like a hibernation. It mostly dries up also. Then, when the moss becomes wet again, so does the Water Bear. It revives, and goes on with its life.
Sometimes, Water Bears can be in an antiobiotic state for several years."
They sometimes eat nematodes. <3
