-they are now battling the high salinity of the shrinking waters of the Great Salt Lake, but there is a chance that in the state of cryptobiosis they may survive the sixth mass extinction,
-they are a pillar of the eco-system the Great Salt Lake and the crucial link in a food chain that feed the fish and millions of migratory birds,
-Capitalism assigned a commodity value to the brine shrimp in 1957 by reducing them to the Sea Monkeys, a magic instant life product that has been sold mostly to children in America since 1957.
