Certain species possess impressive regenerative abilities, particularly some amphibians and reptiles. A well-known example is the axolotl, a type of salamander, which can regrow limbs, tails, and even parts of its heart and brain. Other notable regenerating animals include some species of starfish and certain types of flatworms. These creatures have specialized cells that allow for tissue replacement and complete limb regeneration, serving as a significant interest in scientific research, particularly in regenerative medicine and genetics, which could someday provide insights into healing human injuries and conditions.
