What you’re looking at is a live, beating heart of a rabbit. This animal’s heart can stay alive for as long as they are able to maintain this electronic membrane.
To naysayers who claim this is just a more advanced form of a pacemaker, nothing could be further from the truth. The pacemaker simply reminds the heart to beat of its own accord while it is alive. This device can actually keep a heart beating without any outside nerve stimulation, meaning it sends all the commands the heart needs to beat on its own, no questions asked!

Oh science.
