What is an Axolotl?
Ambystoma mexicanum
Axolotls are a species of fully aquatic amphibian. Indigenous to only two cold-water lakes near Mexico city, habitat loss has caused a sharp decline in their wild populations. However, they thrive in domestic trade as easy exotic pets. They are also studied in labs for their incredible regenerative abilities. Axolotls are able to regrow almost any part of their body, including their brain! Scientists hope researching them could help develop human regenerative medicine.
