The 23 kg Dodo bird, which became extinct 400 years ago, will be alive again! Claim of genetic engineering company
The Dodo bird became extinct from the earth in the 17th century. Now Colossal Biosciences says it wants to revive it through genetic changes. For this the company is talking about taking the help of gene editing. If this happens then it will be a huge achievement for mankind on the part of scientists. Colossal Biosciences is responsible for all the research related to Dodo. official website In which the firm has also explained the method of reviving Dodo.
This can be proved true only when this firm has completely read the genome of Dodo and decoded it. The scientists here have started working on this. For this, scientists are taking the help of stem cell technology through which species that had become extinct 350 years ago can be revived. If this happens, then in the coming time, huge creatures like dinosaurs can also be seen roaming on the earth again. At the same time, the research report says that this can be possible through gene editing.
According to the conclusions drawn on the basis of gene study, Dodo is considered close to pigeons. It used to be a heavy bird whose weight could range from 13 kg to 23 kg. It looked like a bird but it could not fly. Dodo was first seen in 1507. After that they started being killed and eaten and gradually their numbers started decreasing. Then in the 17th century their species became extinct. Scientists at Colossal Biosciences believe that if it is successful, we will be able to save such species which are now on the verge of extinction. With the help of science, scientists are trying their best to make this a reality.
