Colossal Biosciences, Woolly Mammoth Mouse and Dodo Birds
Texas-based Colossal Biosciences has successfully engineered "woolly mice" with mammoth-like traits such as golden coats and cold-resistant fat metabolisms. The company aims to eventually resurrect the woolly mammoth and the dodo bird using gene-editing technology. The hosts joke about the culinary potential of the dodo bird, which was famously hunted to extinction by Dutch sailors in the 17th century.
