"52,000-Year-Old Woolly Mammoth DNA Successfully Reconstructed"
Scientists have successfully mapped the three-dimensional genome of a 52,000-year-old woolly mammoth using fossilized remains, marking the first full replication of an ancient animal's DNA from a fossil. This breakthrough, achieved through a six-year international study, opens new possibilities for exploring the biology of extinct species and could enhance modern conservation efforts by providing insights into genetic diversity and evolutionary adaptations.
