Plushie Dimensions: 18cm long
Description:
Dugesia are a genus of freshwater planarian native to Africa, Eurasia and Australia. They are known for their regeneration capabilities; if cut in half (or more) each piece will regenerate new planaria! Sometimes this process goes “wrong” and they end up with two heads. Scientists have even managed to modify them to grow a head at each end (or a tail!).
