US President Donald Trump, in his address to Congress, called out the previous Joe Biden administration for spending millions of dollars on making “mice transgender” in a slip-up for what was ...

On Tuesday, Colossal announced that its scientists have simultaneously edited seven genes in mice embryos to create mice with long, thick, woolly hair. They nicknamed the extra-furry rodents as ...

On Tuesday, the team behind the plan to bring mammoth-like animals back to the tundra announced the creation of what it is calling wooly mice, which have long fur reminiscent of the woolly mammoth.

The animals, the first to have been created by Colossal Biosciences, have fluffy coats and curly whiskers. They’re small, fluffy, and kind of cute, but these mice represent a milestone in de ...

A series of experiments saw mice trying to revive their companion with mouse-to-mouse resuscitation, as opposed to scurrying away. The study, published in the journal Science, saw a mouse placed ...

Genetically engineered woolly mice could one day help populate the Arctic with hairy, genetically modified elephants and help stop the planet warming. Those are the startling claims being made by ...

De-extinction startup Colossal Biosciences has gene-edited mice to have mammoth-like features, creating what the company calls the Colossal Woolly Mouse. The lab mice, which have been modified to ...
