Scientists have created the most complete 3D reconstruction of the woolly mammoth genome, thanks to a remarkably well-preserved specimen that was “freeze-dried” immediately after death. With its DNA preserved in a glass-like state, they discovered fossilized chromosomes for the first time, enabling them to see which genes were active or inactive. While mammoths and other
