Beneath the Siberian permafrost, frozen for 4,000 years, lies something that could save millions of modern lives. Scientists ...

After bringing dire wolves back from extinction, scientists are confident we could soon see the return of the long-dead woolly mammoth. Woolly mammoths roamed Europe, Asia, and North America from ...

The results of searching the family tree of the woolly mammoth have been surprising; it turns out the beasts we most closely associate with the Ice Age emerged not from a linear lineage, but a ...

To create the woolly mouse, scientists analyzed the genetic instructions, or genomes, of 121 mammoth and elephant samples to identify genes that may have given woolly mammoths some of their ...

Scientists trying to bring back the woolly mammoth have created a woolly mouse. Colossal Biosciences unveiled plans in 2021 to revive the woolly mammoth - and later the dodo bird - attracting ...

US biotechnology company Colossal Laboratories and Biosciences has a radical proposal: it wants to resurrect the woolly mammoth from extinction. In a preprint paper published on March 4 ...

the world met the woolly “mammouse”—a genetically engineered mouse with woolly mammoth hair. The scientists at Colossal Biosciences who created it think it’s a promising step toward their ...

The genetically modified rodents, dubbed "woolly mice", were engineered to grow long and dense fur which resembles the coat of a mammoth. According to Colossal Biosciences, the study, which has ...

Woolly mammoths roamed the frozen tundras of Europe, Asia and North America until they went extinct around 4,000 years ago. Colossal made a splash in 2021 when it unveiled an ambitious plan to ...

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 ...

A US biotech company has genetically modified mice to have traits from the extinct woolly mammoth. Researchers at Colossal Laboratories and Biosciences endowed their mice with the thick ...

It’s one small step for mice, one giant leap for mammoth-kind. Scientists endeavoring to “de-extinct” woolly mammoths through genetic modification have taken a meaningful step toward ...
