“We are constantly answering the same question. When are we going to bring dinosaurs back to Earth?” says Colossal CSO Dr. Beth Shapiro. Jurassic Park popularized the idea, but it began with scientists who first proved DNA could be recovered after death, sparking a global race. | Colossal Biosciences

Colossal Biosciences on Instagram: "Why start a de-extinction and species preservation company? We have plenty of reasons. Our Chief Science Officer, Dr. Beth Shapiro, highlights a couple: today’s extinction rate is 1,000x higher than the baseline in the fossil record, and the pace of environmental change is outstripping evolution’s ability to keep up. The biggest disaster of all would be doing nothing."

Could we bring back the extinct Dodo? 🦤 Colossal Biosciences has launched three different species de-extinction projects, the woolly mammoth, the thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian tiger, and the dodo. And with each of these, they're creating new versions of these species, resurrecting core phenotypes to put them back into their natural habitats to help those habitats by restoring the missing ecological interactions that were present when these species were still alive.
