Item #1: Researchers report they were able to successfully regrow a functional leg in a rat following treatment with a five-drug cocktail.[5]
Item #2: A new study of the neuroanatomy of bat hearing finds that bats fall into two groups with distinct anatomy for echolocation, suggesting that echolocation may have evolved independently in the two groups.[6]
