We will discover new tools, new ways that we can help species that are still alive but in danger of becoming extinct.” ...

The mice were created by Colossal Biosciences, which edits DNA for species conservation, and has been working to bring back the woolly mammoth since 2021.

In the team’s latest breakthrough, they’ve successfully created a healthy new species of mice whose genes they’ve sliced and diced to give them those precise attributes, even changing how ...

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 ...

Colossal Biosciences leaders say the fluffy, golden-haired mice help validate their technique to “de-extinct” species, but ...

This new research suggests that mice are yet another member of the animal kingdom that practice first-aid behavior instinctively when others of their species are incapacitated. In laboratory tests ...
