Science News talks with Gill on breeding ‘wooly mice’
Science News spoke with University of Maine professor of terrestrial paleoecology Jacquelyn Gill on an experiment to de-extinct the wooly mammoth by breeding mice. “I understand why someone would be compelled to see a mammoth,” Gill said. “I’ve never seen my study system in person, right? It only exists in my mind’s eye, because I study a past that is gone.”
