Scientists are venturing into the realm of de-extinction, aiming to revive the woolly mammoth using advanced genetic ...

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 ...

Extinction is typically for good. Once a species winks out, it survives only in memory and the fossil record. When it comes to the woolly mammoth, however, that rule has now been bent. It’s been 4,000 ...

Colossal Biosciences engineered mice with long, woolly hair by editing seven genes. Scientists see potential for conservation but doubt true "de-extinction." The company may apply the technique to ...

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 ...

The woolly mammoth may surprisingly have regularly interbred with a completely different and much larger elephant species, researchers now find. Woolly mammoths (Mammuthus primigenius) roamed the ...

It’s tiny, but this lab mouse could have a mammoth impact. With curly whiskers and wavy, light hair that grows three times longer than that of an ordinary lab mouse, the genetically modified rodent ...

Resurrecting extinct creatures — it may sound like science fiction. Or maybe it reminds you of a familiar ’90s flick? While the fictitious “Jurassic Park” notably does not have a picture-perfect ...

A tusk from a woolly mammoth, estimated to be 10,000 years old, has gone on display. The tusk originated from somewhere around the North Sea, according to Will Dorrell, co-owner of Hoo Zoo and ...
