Scientists created transgenic mice with woolly mammoth–like traits. But does it really bring us closer to bringing back woolly mammoths?

Four woolly mammoths that once stood outside the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History, and later the Cincinnati Museum Center ...

Archaeologists have discovered the remains of at least five woolly mammoths at a site in Austria. The remains suggest that ancient humans processed the mammoths' ivory tusks 25,000 years ago.

Last week, science delivered a really cute experimental result. Researchers created a “colossal woolly mouse,” a fluffy rodent that’s purported to be a step on the way to resurrecting woolly ...

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 ...

Biotech company Colossal Biosciences is attempting to genetically engineer living animals to resemble extinct species such as the woolly mammoth. Woolly mammoths, which disappeared roughly 4,000 ...

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 ...

Scientists have successfully created genetically modified mice with woolly mammoth traits, a significant step in de-extinction efforts. Colossal Biosciences aims to use similar techniques to ...

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 ...

The company claims this is the first step toward “de-extincting” the woolly mammoth. The successful genetic modification of a laboratory mouse is a testament to the progress science has made ...

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 ...
