A waterbear is not a bear, it is a tardigrade. it is microscopic. Tardigrades (Tardigrada), also known as water bears or moss piglets, are a phylum of small invertebrates. They can live for 5 years in dehydrated moss and also have been found on the rovers on Mars.

- J.A.E. Goeze (Pastor at St. Blasii, Quedlinburg, Germany), 1773
