Animals are true superheroes. They have superpowers that we humans can only dream of. Some grow back their limbs after they have lost them. Others let huge bones grow on their heads at a rapid speed. And some can go into hibernation for months without losing muscle. Their skills could help humans against Alzheimer's, heart attack and osteoporosis. But these superpowers are still a mystery. How do animals do that? Scientists are trying to solve the riddles to help save human lives. The filmmaker Heiko De Groot has visited eight research projects in Europe and America. His documentary shows impressively how animals can help us to save human lives and by that presents another argument on how important it is to conserve biodiversity.
