The genome was reconstructed by Colossal from ancient DNA found in fossils
The fossils date back 11,500 and 72,000 years
Colossal Biosciences said: "This moment marks not only a milestone for us as a company but also a leap forward for science, conservation, and humanity. From the beginning, our goal has been clear:
To revolutionize history and be the first company to use CRISPR technology successfully in the de-extinction of previously lost species.
By achieving this, we continue to push forward our broader mission onāaccepting humanityās duty to restore Earth to a healthier state."
