"The Indian Institute of Technology-Madras (IIT-M) is all set to offer a full semester, one-of-its-kind elective course under the inter-disciplinary stream on Biomimicry. Biomimicry, as the name suggests is to imitate or look at nature as a source of inspiration to solve complex problems."

The pictured frog or gecko (or whatever) is in itself a brilliant and instructive bit of technological art imitating nature.
