***Worlds Hardest Creatre: Fourth place play off***

[The Brighton Bear]

The vast majority of tardigrada feed only on plant cells or bacteria, slicing them open and drinking their fluid contents. A few other species in tropical reefs even "farm" food from bacterial colonies in specialized cranial cavities. Some water bears, however, are a little less snuggly. Milnesium tardigradum shown here is one example of a fully predatory tardigrade. Moving incredibly fast on its first six legs, it employs its fourth pair only to stand upright and attack prey with the rest of its claws, not unlike an actual bear. Predatory species may also be adapted for leaping, rocketing at their quarry in the blink of an eye.

Those fake tardigrade pictures are all very well but elephants were actually used in REAL wars because they are so HARD. #teamelephant

Congratulations to the African Elephant who seals the final place in the second round. Hard luck Tardigrade, just three points behind the elephant after a grueling group campaign and a head to head play off battle.

The live draw for the second round matches will start in a few minutes.
