Some were surrounded by myth and misunderstandings for a very long time; others have only recently revealed their secrets. David Attenborough once again reveals another group of creatures that have baffled or fascinated us for centuries. In the new series Sir David examines the wonderful creatures that are famous for what seem impossible feats, such as the super fast cheetahs, jumping fleas, clever crows, the enduring hump of the camel, regenerating salamanders and more. You'll even find that some of these extraordinary creatures are linked in very strange ways! Uncovering the truth which is often stranger than fiction and Sir David's new series of Natural Curiosities will leave you astonished.

Part 6: Remarkable Regeneration

Salamanders can regenerate entire legs and tails to replace ones they have lost, while deer shed their massive antlers and re-grow them from a few remaining cells each year. How do these creatures regenerate entire body parts and why is it not possible for all animals to do the same?
