 Amazingly, fully dry moss harbors many creatures that can be 'brought to life' when put in water!<br />

+Following the evolution of these miniature ecosystems over time is also of great interest, so eventually this page will link to other pages following individual 'cultures' and organisms.  Lichen for instance have become very interesting for new menageries, as they were recommended as more likely to harbor Tardigrades by an old colleague (BG in North Carolina).**<br />
 Just to begin, here is one special protozoan, first spotted on the move by Sam. (thanks!)<br />
