The Trump administration has announced a new partnership with Colossal Biosciences, a private company known for its work on de-extinction. This collaboration aims to establish a comprehensive gene bank for at-risk animal and plant species.
The initiative involves collecting and storing DNA samples from various imperiled species, providing a crucial resource for future conservation efforts and potentially aiding in the revival of extinct animals, such as dire wolves, as claimed by Colossal Biosciences.
