For the first time, researchers have uncovered Ice Age RNA preserved within permafrost mammoth tissue, offering a rare glimpse into real-time gene activity from tens of millennia ago. Researchers at ...

In 2010, researchers in northeastern Siberia stumbled upon a genetic goldmine: the remarkably well-preserved remains of a juvenile woolly mammoth. The animal, named Yuka, died nearly 39,000 years ago, ...

Researchers have sequenced the oldest RNA ever recovered, taken from a woolly mammoth frozen for nearly 40,000 years. The RNA ...

A 40,000-year-old juvenile woolly mammoth named Yuka is not only remarkable because she was uncovered nearly intact or her ...

Long before modern humans built cities or carved out farms, woolly mammoths wandered across frozen plains with thick coats ...

Mármol and his colleagues extracted RNA sequences from the muscles and skin of 10 permafrozen woolly mammoth specimens found across Northeastern Siberia. Analysis of one specimen, a juvenile mammoth ...

A woolly mammoth that lived and died nearly 40,000 years ago has given us a spectacular scientific first, millennia later. From the skin and muscle of a mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) named Yuka, ...

The oldest RNA ever reported until now came from a 14,300-year-old “wolf” puppy frozen in permafrost. But when Mármol-Sánchez ...

WASHINGTON — Frozen in time under permafrost was "Nun cho ga", the near complete baby woolly mammoth uncovered by a Canadian miner on Tuesday. The rare discovery marks the best-preserved mummified ...

Scientists at the Dallas-based Colossal Biosciences have taken a big step towards their goal of bringing back the woolly mammoth by creating what they've dubbed Colossal Woolly Mouse "I'm excited," ...

In 2010 Yukaghir hunters found the nearly intact carcass of a young woolly mammoth frozen in the northern Siberian permafrost. With its reddish-brown fur still clinging to its skin, the dog-sized calf ...

Scientists have recently successfully isolated and sequenced the oldest-known RNA from a juvenile male woolly mammoth – ...
