The beauty of outdoor sports is subjecting yourself to ruthless weather, unforgiving terrain, or intense physical activity to see what you’re made of. No matter how rugged an adventurer you are, sooner or later we pack up our gear, thank our lucky stars and head for the comforts of home. For some creatures, the hottest, coldest, highest and least habitable places on the planet ARE home. So once again, we asked our crack research department to pull together an infographic showing the creatures who call the most extreme places home.

    Ever since I was a little lad I’ve always pictured myself as a Tardigrade, and I am so happy now that you are giving this beautiful creature the love and attention it truly deserves!
