Scientists plan to reincarnate the woolly mammoth within the next 4 years

Company trying to bring back woolly mammoth

The long-dead woolly mammoth will make its return from extinction by 2027, says Colossal, the biotech company actively working to reincarnate the ancient beast.

According to Yahoo News, the Dallas-based firm scored an additional $60 million in funding last year to continue the well, mammoth gene-editing work it started in 2021.

If successful, not only will Colossal bring back an extinct species, the company dubs a cold-resistant elephant, but it will also reintroduce the woolly mammoth to the same ecosystem in which it once lived in an effort to fight climate change.
