Colossal

Extinction is a colossal problem facing the world.

And Colossal is the company that's going to fix it.

Combining the science of genetics with the business of discovery, we endeavor to jumpstart nature's ancestral heartbeat. To see the Woolly Mammoth thunder upon tundra once again.

The Solution

De-Extinction

A functional application of advanced gene editing technology aimed at rebuilding the DNA of lost megafauna and other creatures that had a measurably positive impact on our fragile ecosystems.

Decoding life

This is DNA and the new dawn of genetics. This is incomprehensibly microscopic. Yet, this is Colossal — the advanced genetics and biosciences company that's developing the science that will save us, our planet and the species that inhabit it.

May prehistory thunder forward

Rise of the Mammoth

Bringing back the Woolly Mammoth

In the minds of many, this creature is gone forever. But not in the minds of our scientists, nor the labs of our company. We're already in the process of the de-extinction of the Woolly Mammoth. Our teams have collected viable DNA samples, and are editing the genes that will allow this wonderful megafauna to once again thunder through the Arctic.
