The Resurrection Quest
Curious Cases
Willy Mammoth or Arctic Adapted Elephant?
The overall plan from colossal's perspective is to identify the genetic changes that make a mammoth look more like a elephant. Then engineer an Asian elephant cell to have some or as many of those mutations as possible and create, if you will, an Arctic adapted elephant. The plan is to eventually have these Arctic adapted elephants born and raised and hopefully released into some habitat in which they are welcome. I think personally that this is a long way off but the technologies that are discovered and developed along the way are going to be useful for lots of different applications and conservation.
