US company Colossal Biosciences has announced the creation of a “woolly mouse” — a laboratory mouse with a series of genetic modifications that lead to a woolly coat. The company claims ...

Colossal Biosciences believes the woolly coat will enable its genetically engineered mice to survive in cold climates. Still, the company must first obtain approval from the Institutional Animal ...

who pointed out that that's a "long time" to wait to see if their experiment would in fact lead to elephants having a woolly coat.

“And then we look in the mouse for those same genes and instances where those genes have been involved with making a woolly coat, or longer hair, or changing the color of the hair,” Shapiro say ...

A woolly coat is one thing. Recreating the entire suite of adaptations, including genetic, epigenetic and behavioral traits that allowed mammoths to thrive in ice age environments, is another.
