The Elysia cf. marginata, a type of sea slug, can survive decapitation and grow a whole new body from it, according to a 2014 article by researchers Sayaka Mitoh and Yoichi Yusa.
“Autotomy, the voluntary shedding of a body part, is common to distantly-related animals such as arthropods, gastropods, asteroids, amphibians, and lizards,” writes Mitoh and Yusa.
