The tiger went extinct in the early 20th century. THE DODO could be brought back to life hundreds of years after going extinct thanks to a DNA breakthrough. Last August, Colossal said it would use a similar method to bring the Tasmanian tiger back to the island off the southeast tip of Australia. In 2021, the company announced it would attempt to combine woolly mammoth and elephant DNA to recreate a next-generation mammoth capable of surviving in the Arctic and helping restore that ecosystem. The dodo bird mission is far from Colossal scientists’ first when it comes to bringing back extinct species. Therefore, it is our intention to partner with the government of Mauritius to establish a foundation for the de-extinction and rewilding of the beloved bird we all dearly miss.” It appears complete and is one of only two. In early July 2007, scientists working on the island of Mauritius, east of Madagascar off of the coast of Africa, announced the discovery of the best preserved dodo skeleton ever found. “Colossal is committed to reviving species lost to extinction in an effort to build a better world. The dodo - an extinct bird made famous in traveling exhibitions and works of fiction - may be ready for a comeback. A glaring example of the price of carelessness,” Colossal writes. “The dodo bird is a symbol of man-made extinction. The professor said there needed to be a different approach to bringing back birds over mammals, and that was going to be the biggest hurdle. Pigs and other animals brought to the island also ate dodo eggs, leading to extinction. According to Britannica, the birds were killed for food. It stood up to 27 inches (70 centimeters) tall and weighed 28 to 45 pounds (13 to 20 kilograms), according. Portuguese sailors discovered the dodo on the island of Mauritius off the east coast of Africa more than 500 years ago. The dodo was a heavyset, gray-brown bird with tiny wings, strong legs and a large beak. Players have a 5 chance of hatching a legendary pet from the Fossil Egg, but only a 2.5 chance of hatching a. As it is now unavailable, it can only be obtained by trading or hatching any remaining Fossil Eggs. Its release was confirmed in the Fossil Isle Excavation Event, which started on October 2, 2020. Today, Colossal is committed to bringing it back.” The Dodo is a limited legendary pet, which was added to Adopt Me on October 10, 2020. “In the late 17th century, man brought an abrupt end to the dodo species. “A mysterious bird of increasingly mysterious origins, the dodo bird ruled the roost on its native island of Mauritius – and nowhere else – until meeting an untimely demise,” Colossal writes on its website. Colossal cites “the dodo bird’s final date of extinction sometime around 1690,” with stating “the last dodo was killed in 1681.” The dodo bird species famously went extinct hundreds of years ago. The mission is a part of the company’s “new Avian Genomics Group,” according to a tweet from the company.

Genetic engineering company Colossal Biosciences announced its scientists are planning to bring back the dodo bird.
