Should we bring back extinct animals? Wrong question. Why are we bringing back extinct animals when we have animals, plants, and fungi that are going extinct now, daily? By 2050, up to half of all ...

Scientists have made a leap in genetic engineering by pushing elephant cells into an embryonic-like state. This marks a major step toward recreating traits of the extinct woolly mammoth, offering new ...

Long before global warming was the biggest environmental issue, the planet was in the opposite kind of funk — an ice age lasting around 2.6 million years. During this time, starting about 700,000 ...

Following their success in reviving the extinct dire wolves, scientists are confident about the potential return of the long-gone woolly mammoth. The woolly mammoths were once widespread across Europe ...

After an intense study of the mammoth's genetic code, scientists have engineered 'woolly' mice with altered fur thickness, color, and texture to recreate the extinct elephant's adaptations to the cold ...

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Colossal Biosciences (“Colossal”), the world’s first de-extinction company, announces today that their Woolly Mammoth team has achieved a global-first iPSC (induced ...

Scientists working to unlock the secrets of de-extinction recently announced what they say is a turning point for the movement: the creation of transgenic mice with long, luxurious golden locks of ...

In a lab far from the woolly mammoth’s icy plains, researchers from Colossal Biosciences have successfully brought a tiny “woolly mouse” to life. Here’s what it could mean for de-extinction. A tiny, ...

Benjamin Tapon receives funding from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, through the LIDo DTP. Alex de Mendoza receives funding from European Research Council and the Royal ...

It hasn’t roamed the Earth for thousands of years, but scientists are hoping to bring back the iconic woolly mammoth. At Colossal Laboratories and Biosciences, a Dallas-based company, scientists have ...

Hoping to bring the giant, ancient animal back from extinction, scientists have created a far smaller woolly creature. Woolly mice have some of... Hoping to revive mammoths, scientists create 'woolly ...
