- US and Australian researchers have made significant advancements toward potentially resurrecting the Tasmanian tiger, an animal that went extinct 87 years ago.
- Using advanced genetic techniques, the team extracted a DNA sequence of the Tasmanian tiger that is 99.9% identical to the original.
- They have modified the genome of the tiger's closest living relative, the fat-tailed dunnart, to create a creature resembling the Tasmanian tiger.
- Despite the progress, critics argue that resources would be better allocated to protecting endangered species.
