Alligators

Newts do it. Lizards do it. Even educated axolotls do it. Regenerating limbs isn’t something many animals can do, but now there’s a surprising new addition to the list – alligators. A study has shown that alligators can regrow part of a lost tail.

For 35 years American alligators have been tracked in a sanctuary in South Carolina, and a study about the findings has just been released. The results? We might have to rethink gator size and sex.
