Reblogged from Brendan Carroll, Novelist:
I've recently seen a couple of posts on Facebook that are highly disturbing. The photograph, taken through an electron scanning microscope, reveals a creature so bizarre as to cause nightmares in even the most fearsome redneck and/or semi-immortal Scottish alchemist with a golden sword.
As you can see, this creature, commonly called a Water Bear is NO bear I've ever seen or heard of (as you know, I do not care for bears and thought the name highly appropriate in any case) also called Moss Piglets (too cute for this monster).
Interesting.

As I’ve just said to Mary, it looks man-made to me.
Or else, it moisturises regularly.

That is vile. Completely vile. I’m sorry to hurt its feelings but… really.

It looks like a man-made bean toy to me, to be honest.
Which doesn’t mean that it hasn’t got any feelings, of course.
