"Consider the axolotl: our great hope of regeneration?"

It's definitely the most interesting creature I've ever read about. Makes me wonder though, that bit about regenerating its heart, what on earth keeps it alive while it regenerates a new one if the old one failed?
Really weird stuff, but very fascinating!

they cannot regenerate the whole heart. up to a third of the hearth can be damaged and they can restore that. the same with the brain, they can "only" regrow parts of the brain, not the whole brain... still amazing!
