Axolotls can regenerate entire limbs, spinal cords, hearts, and even parts of their brains. This unique ability makes them a focus of scientific research into regenerative medicine.
Deer can regenerate their antlers annually. These antlers are made of bone, and the rapid regrowth process involves complex biological mechanisms that scientists study for insights into bone regeneration.
Many lizards can regenerate their tails when lost to predators. This regenerative process involves the regrowth of the tail’s bone, muscle, and skin, providing them with a valuable survival mechanism.
Planarians, a type of flatworm, can regenerate their entire bodies from just a tiny fragment. Their remarkable regenerative abilities are used extensively in cellular regeneration and healing research.
Salamanders can regrow limbs, tails, and even parts of their eyes and hearts. Their regenerative capabilities are among the most advanced in the animal kingdom, enabling remarkable recovery from damage.
Sea cucumbers can expel and later regenerate their internal organs as a defence mechanism. This extraordinary ability allows them to survive predation and regenerate lost body parts over time.
Spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair follicles, and cartilage without scarring. Their extraordinary healing abilities make them a unique research subject in wound healing and tissue regeneration.
Starfish can regenerate lost arms; sometimes, an entire starfish can grow from a single arm. This remarkable ability helps them recover from injuries and predation.
