Russian scientists found the tiny, ancient animal called the bdelloid rotifer in soil taken from the river Alazeya in Russia's region of Yakutia in the far north. The bdelloid rotifer, a multicellular organism found in freshwater habitats across the world, is known to be able to withstand extreme cold. Rotifers live in freshwater marine environments, and are mostly omnivorous. The organisms—which are entirely female—are also one of Mother Nature’s more resilient creatures.
