Join our GroupTardigrades - Chapter on Rotifers (2008)
Beginning of the chapter on 'rotifers' in my undergraduate thesis project, entitled 'Tardigrades'. Rotifers are quite common in the region in which I live. They are fascinating hygrophilous organisms, whose name means 'wheel bearer'. They have cilia on the top of their head region, which they beat to create a sucking vortex of water and food materials that are pulled towards their corona or 'mouth'. Tardigrades are also nicknamed water bears or moss piglets. They are microscopic animals most commonly found in mosses or along ocean shores. They have a similar appearance to bears and have eight legs. Some are armored, some are not. The full thesis film is a 20 minute natural history documentary on tardigrades, rotifers, nematodes, and other micro and meioscopic organisms. The production process went on for 11 months of 2008. Over 190 samples were taken from mosses, soils, leaf litter, water bodies, and the like. Six of the samples contained tardigrades. In addition to the film, a 100 page thesis paper was completed on the topics of wildlife film theory, semiotics in biological descriptions, natural history background of the animals found, and observational data. Directed, written, edited, and animation by Julie Mink. Music and voice over by Alexa Casciato. withjulie.com
