Animal Engineering

Engineers are going back to nature to study its most amazing feats.

From bat’s ears to rat’s whiskers, they’re hoping to steal nature’s evolutionary tricks to provide us with revolutionary applications.

This rising field is called biomimetics – where engineering meets biology. In this three-part series for BBC World Service, Gareth Mitchell meets the animals and the academics who are working together.
