In only a minute, witness the year long process of limb regeneration in one of Postojna Cave's juvenile olms. This remarkable and one-of-a-kind event occurred in Postojna Cave’s laboratory quite spontaneously – nature surprised us all. Meet Viktor and his new leg. After a fight with his brother, our 3-year-old juvenile olm ended up with an injured leg, which fell off some time later, and the regeneration process began. ©Postojnska jama Cave Grotte
