5. Ding, ding. That didn't take long! What a smart bunch. Research
the little critters if you don't know about them. They are neat and have some fantastic hidden abilities. At least they won't be trying to steal our picanic baskets!

7. Couple of water bear VIDEOS!
First one set to some not too thrilling music...
But, the videos, while short, are really cool!
