Colossal Biosciences' Controversial Quest to Revive Extinct Species
Colossal Biosciences is stirring debate with its ambitious projects to resurrect extinct animals like the woolly mammoth. While the company highlights the potential for conservation and ecosystem restoration through gene-editing and cloning, critics raise ethical concerns about the welfare of these revived species and the diversion of resources from existing conservation efforts. The company recently opened its new Dallas lab, showcasing its progress with 'woolly mice' and addressing the ongoing controversy surrounding its de-extinction initiatives.
