Colossal Biosciences, a Texas-based start-up company, has just revealed plans to'de-extinct' the dodo, more than 350 years after it was wiped out of Mauritius' island in the 17th century. The company will invest $150 million (£121 million) on the new venture, which will launch in tandem with similar efforts to recover the extinct woolly mammoth and Tasmanian tiger.
