The axolotl can regenerate lost limbs, parts of its spinal cord, heart tissue, and even portions of its brain—often with little or no scarring. Unlike most salamanders, it also keeps its juvenile features for life, including its feathery external gills.
Mind-blowing fact: Scientists study axolotls because understanding how they regenerate complex tissues could one day help improve human healing and regenerative medicine.
