Imagine someone digs you up in 15,000 years and discovers what you had for lunch the day that you died. That’s more or less ...
The work marks the first time an Ice Age animal’s complete genome has been recovered from tissue preserved inside another ancient animal.
Frozen wolf pup stomach tissue produced a complete woolly rhino genome, implying stable genetics right before extinction hit ...
A 14,400-year-old wolf puppy’s last meal is shedding light on the last days of one of the Ice Age’s most iconic megafauna species, the woolly rhinoceros. When researchers dissected the frozen ...
Researchers were able to sequence the full genome from the 14,000-year-old chunk of preserved woolly rhinoceros meat.
Analysis of woolly rhinoceros DNA recovered from the permafrost-preserved wolf further hints that the Ice Age beasts went extinct because of a sudden shift in the climate ...
Scientists have successfully sequenced the genome of the long-extinct woolly rhinoceros from an unusual place: the stomach contents of a naturally mummified Pleistocene wolf pup from Siberia. As its ...
The woolly rhino, Coelodonta antiquitatis, would have been an impressive sight to the ancient people who painted images of ...
An unusual DNA source shows woolly rhinos did not slowly decline genetically, pointing instead to rapid climate warming.
Scientists prepared a high-quality sequence of the giant mammal’s genome based on a specimen preserved in Siberian permafrost.
Little is known about why the woolly rhinoceros went extinct around 14,000 years ago. Scientists have found clues in the frozen remains of an ice age wolf.
