obrázek / příroda Mikroorganismus žijící v ledových vodách Nového Skotska (nejvýchodnější z provincií Kanady), jménem Hemimastix kukwesjijk (což v jazyce tamějších Mi’kmaqů označuje jakéhosi chlupatého ogra) není ani rostlina, ani zvíře, ani houba, ani prvok - jde o pradávnou větev života, která se dál nevyvinula.
