It’s long been the dream of every scientist and science fiction nerd to one day be able to bring back extinct species. We may not quite be there yet, but we did somehow manage to bring the wooly mammoth back for … meatballs. It might not be the huge Jurassic Park we were secretly all hoping for, but at least we’ve now firmly opened the door towards a prehistoric McDonald’s. Which I guess is the most McDonald’s thing ever to do.
Overnight, Vow, an Australian cultivated meat company, unveiled a groundbreaking achievement: the creation of the first-ever meat derived from the DNA of an extinct animal. The unveiling took place at the Nemo Science Museum in the Netherlands, where the innovative Mammoth Meatball was showcased.
