What if an animal could cheat death by starting life all over again? In this Fun Facts episode, we explore one of nature’s most astonishing creatures: the so-called immortal jellyfish, Turritopsis dohrnii. This tiny marine animal has the extraordinary ability to revert from its adult form back into its juvenile state, effectively resetting its biological clock. When faced with injury, starvation, or environmental stress, it transforms into a polyp and begins its life cycle anew. This rare process, known as transdifferentiation, allows the jellyfish’s cells to change function and form—something almost unheard of in the animal kingdom. Scientists around the world study this remarkable species to better understand aging, regeneration, and cellular biology. It’s a real-life example of biological immortality that sounds like science fiction, but exists right here in our oceans.
