What is the scientific name for water bears?
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.Strange is this little animal, because of its exceptional and strange morphology and because it closely resembles a bear en miniature. That is the reason why I decided to call it little water bear.- J.A.E. Goeze (Pastor at St. Blasii, Quedlinburg, Germany), 1773
