Texas Company Trying To Resurrect Woolly Mammoths To Improve Genetics Of Bison

A Texas biotechnology and genetic engineering company that’s using cutting-edge science to de-extinct the dodo and Tasmanian tiger wants to use woolly mammoths to help build better bison on the Wind River Indian Reservation in Wyoming.

Colossal Biosciences is the same outfit that’s theorized about making it possible to someday introduce woolly mammoths in Yellowstone National Park.

Its latest initiative builds on one of the greatest conservation comebacks in the history of the United States. Instead of bringing an extinct animal back to life, the company aspires to improve upon North America’s most iconic animal species — the American bison.

The Colossal Indigenous Council is a new partnership between Colossal and several American Indian tribes, including the Eastern Shoshone and Arapaho on the Wind River Reservation in central Wyoming, focusing on a stronger future for bison.
