Tardigrades have cute nicknames like water bears and moss piglets, but they look like tiny faceless manatees. The microscopic critters dwell in moss and lichen and can be found almost everywhere on Earth.

Here are some human-sized goodies for the water bear lover in your life:

1. This 3D-printed desk mate.

Tardigrades are incredibly resilient: A few survived being shuttled into the oxygen-deprived vacuum of space and left outside in sub-zero temperature for 10 days. The hangover you're about to give yourself is nothing compared to that!

4. These stuffed bears.
