Parthenogenic mammal? Don't think so!
"Since parthenogenesis is common in plants, moderately common in invertebrate animals, occasionally reported in fish, frogs and lizards, but never reported in birds and mammals.
I just want to speculate on why this evolutionary trend may have occurred.
I actually did a search on PubMed and there are numerous papers stating the occurence of parthenogenesis in turkeys. It does seem that parthenogenesis only occurs in mammals after human influence, though. "
Would love to know which mammal you think it is! Email me or update your question later, please.

Tardigrades or water bears.
(All your descriptions refer to this animal with the exception of not being a mammal)
>>Tardigrades or water bears (resembles a bear in miniature) can survive vacuum for a period of years.
>>Tardigrades are small microscopic animals -the biggest adults may reach a body length of 1.5 mm, the smallest below 0.1 mm. which need microscope for clear viewing -making them biggest microscopic creature.
>>Tardigrades are small segmented animals with four pairs of legs (in genus Hexapodibius reduced to three) without joints. similar and probably related to the Arthropods.
>>Tardigrades can survive being heated for a few minutes to 151 °C or being chilled for days at -272.8 °C (almost absolute zero).
>>Tardigrades can withstand 5700 grays or 570,000 rads of x-ray radiation. (Five grays or 500 rads would be fatal to a human).
>>They can withstand the extremely low pressure of a vacuum and also very high pressures, many times greater than atmospheric pressure. It has recently been proven that they can survive in the vacuum of space.
>>About 750 species occur over the whole world, from the high Himalaya (above 6000 m) to the deep sea (below 4000 m) and from the polar regions to the equator.♥
