Scientists have made a stem cell breakthrough in elephants, which could mean researchers are one step closer to bringing back long-extinct woolly mammoths, the de-extinction company Colossal ...

Although wooly mammoths are long gone, their recovered ivory lives on as a legal alternative to banned elephant ivory. Scientists can now use lasers to differentiate between the two materials, ...

Colossal Biosciences creates technologies for species restoration, critically endangered species protection, and the repopulation of critical ecosystems that support the continuation of life on Earth.

Now, scientists have published incredible findings from a Siberian mammoth they've named Yuka, revealing that they've found mostly intact RNA that can be dated to around 40,000 years old. It's an ...

Colossal Biosciences, which calls itself “the world’s first de-extinction company,” has created stem cells it thinks will hasten the company’s marquee goal of resurrecting the woolly mammoth. The team ...

A biotech company that hopes to resurrect extinct species said Wednesday that it has reached an important milestone: the creation of a long-sought kind of stem cell for the closest living relative of ...

Researchers say they have developed a new way to distinguish between legal mammoth ivory and illegal elephant ivory. Elephant ivory is often passed off as mammoth ivory when being imported. As the ...

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 ...

Researchers say they have recovered RNA from the remains of a woolly mammoth that lived roughly 39,000 years ago.

Harvard University spliced recreated genes from a woolly mammoth into the DNA of an elephant and found they functioned normally Scientists hope to bring back the woolly mammoth which has not existed ...

Why? Because, as Smithsonian Insider reported in 2015, tens of thousands of years ago, mammoths, elephants, and mastodons had ...
