The can go for a decade with no water.
They're the only creatures capable of surviving the vacuum of space.
They can stop their metabolism.
They're basically the epic animal.

Good question. I googled it and came up with nothing. My guess is that because they live in wet mosses and lichens for the most part, they have very few enemies.

Those are rotifers. They are also in the animal kingdom as are tardigrades. Rotifers are very common and many are amazingly beautiful.
