What do the goblin shark, horseshoe crab, the "indestructible" water bear, and a handful of other bizarre animals have in common? They are all "extreme survivors," animals that still look much like their prehistoric ancestors from millions of years ago. Meet ten amazing animals that appear to have changed little in more than 100 million years. They are the rare exceptions to the rule.
