TL;DR Summary

Dallas-based company Colossal Biosciences has partnered with the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation to find a home for the extinct dodo bird in Mauritius. Colossal Biosciences aims to bring back extinct species using genomic editing technology and hopes that the revival of the dodo will help save other endangered species like the pink pigeon. The company has received a $150 million investment and plans to send a team to Mauritius next year to collaborate with local organizations. Colossal Biosciences aims to undo the ecological damage caused by human activity and restore species to their native habitats.
