"Startup unveils lab-grown mammoth meatball made with extinct species' DNA"

Australian startup Vow has created a meatball made of lab-grown cultured meat using the genetic sequence from the long-extinct mammoth, presented as a source of protein to get people talking about the future of meat. The cells were multiplied until there were enough to roll up into the meatball. More than 100 companies around the world are working on cultivated meat products, which could vastly reduce the environmental impact of global meat production in the future. The mammoth meatball is a one-off and has not been tasted, nor is it planned to be put into commercial production.
