Researchers analyzed ancient RNA from the extinct creatures. Could this be a “steppingstone” in the quest to bring them back?
Scientists have sequenced RNA from a nearly 40,000-year-old woolly mammoth leg, the oldest ancient RNA ever recovered. These fragile molecules could reveal which genes were active in the animal’s ...
A clip from the upcoming series "Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age" shows how iconic ice age creatures adapted to their changing environment as temperatures rose and ice sheets started to melt. When you ...
In 2010, tusk hunters scouring a riverbank near Siberia’s Arctic coast discovered the mummy of a juvenile mammoth. The animal, nicknamed “Yuka” after the nearby village of Yukagir, had been frozen for ...
The woolly mammoth is probably the single most iconic extinct mammal, leading to seemingly never-ending efforts to resurrect it. To do that, however, scientists will need a good understanding of their ...
Almost 40,000 years ago, a juvenile woolly mammoth died in modern-day Siberia. Today, its long-frozen remains have yielded the oldest sequences of RNA—messenger molecules that carry out genetic ...
“Citizen paleontologists” can keep the fossils they uncover around Europe’s largest port. All the professionals ask is that those amateurs let them know. “Citizen paleontologists” can keep the fossils ...
Nov. 15 (UPI) --The well-preserved remains of a woolly mammoth found in Siberia enabled scientists to extract RNA for the first time and learn more about the animal. The woolly mammoth died about ...
Researchers have sequenced the oldest RNA ever recovered, taken from a woolly mammoth frozen for nearly 40,000 years. The RNA reveals which genes were active in its tissues, offering a rare glimpse ...
