Episode notes
Tardigrade Grogginess
- Tardigrades can survive being shot out of a gun at 2,000 mph.
- However, they exhibit grogginess afterwards, shown by a staggered gait.
Tardigrade Vulnerability
- Tardigrades are surprisingly vulnerable to long-term heat and climate change.
- They can survive boiling, but only briefly, and not sustained high temperatures.
Tardigrade Mating
- Tardigrade mating involves the male fertilizing eggs outside the female's body, within her shed exoskeleton.
- The female then does sucking motions with her throat for an hour.
