How on earth does it sleep thousands of hours a day though? Does it snuggle up nice and snug inside a black hole or something???

EXACTLY. I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS. They are all based on daily measurement then the water bear seems to be in its lifetime. Takes away the point of the the chart imo

they aren't all based on daily measurements, the shark example is how long they sleep at a time, not how long they sleep each day.

Lions don't sleep 19 hours straight, it's throughout the day. The whole thing is misleading.
