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 ...
This week, 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 ...

Woolly mice are a first step to resurrecting mammoths, but there's a very long way to go
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, scientists at ...
Woolly mammoths are depicted in this illustration. (Illustration by Mauricio Anton/Wikimedia Commons) Rebecca Woods, University of Toronto In just the last several months, de-extinction — bringing ...
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, ...
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 ...
After the birth of three pups has been called the "de-extinction" of a species not seen on Earth in more than 10,000 years, the company that made it possible has it sights set on resurrecting more ...
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 ...
The company that brought the dire wolf back from extinction wants to do the same for the dodo, Tasmanian tiger, and woolly mammoth. And why not? We have the dire wolf again. Thanks to the heroic work ...
The fate of the woolly mammoth is a story shaped by survival, isolation, and one final mystery still unsolved. Once scattered across the sweeping tundras of the Ice Age, these towering animals thrived ...
We tend to lump all mammoths together as big, hairy elephant-like beasts with enormous tusks. But there were a number of mammoth species, including less furry ones that inhabited temperate regions.
