Texas -based bioengineering company Colossal Biosciences has created a genetically engineered mouse with key mammoth-like traits.

Woolly mammoths roamed the frozen tundras of Europe , Asia and North America for more than 300,000 years before going extinct.

Colossal said it focused on mice first to confirm whether the process works before potentially moving on to edit the embryos of Asian elephants.
