The best part of our mission is how intentional it forces us to be. Listen in on the conversation between Kendall Long and Colossal’s Mammoth Lead, Eriona Hysolli, and Co-founder and CEO, Ben Lamm, to learn about the careful considerations we take when planning our rewilding strategies, and why removing unnatural and invasive species is just as important as reintroducing lost ones. | Colossal Biosciences

The intricate, multifaceted approach to de-extinction extends far beyond reviving species like the woolly mammoth. Pioneered by our co-founders, George Church and Ben Lamm, this strategy focuses on developing systems that harness cutting-edge technologies—not only to advance de-extinction but also to create tools that enhance species preservation, drive conservation, and even improve human health. At Colossal, we see de-extinction not as a singular solution but as part of a comprehensive, system

While the exact numbers may be impossible to determine, the evidence of our profound impact on the disappearance of many remarkable creatures is undeniable. Since the rise of industrialization, extinction rates have soared far beyond natural baselines. Species like the woolly mammoth, thylacine, and dodo—along with others lost to history, such as the woolly rhino and the great auk—have all vanished, in part, due to human influence. Yet, it is also within our power to help bring them back. Throug

CEO Ben Lamm shares his vision for the future of de-extinction science. This is the largest investment ever in species preservation, putting Colossal alongside companies like SpaceX and OpenAI. Scientists predict that we could lose up to 50% of all species on earth in the next 25 years. We’re not going to stand by and let that happen.

2025 was a huge year for de-extinction and species preservation. In the middle of a global biodiversity crisis, this year proved that innovative action still works, that we can still make our dreams a reality. By looking to the past, we’re learning how to repair and fortify the future. From newfound hope for the American Red Wolf to advancing de-extinction efforts for the woolly mammoth, thylacine, and dodo, this work is about rebuilding ecosystems and restoring balance.

For the first time in human history, we are in control of a science with the power to reverse and prevent biodiversity loss on a large scale. We can heal a hurting planet. We can protect the species living on it. We can ethically decipher and protect genetic codes. And we can begin to turn the clock back to a time when Earth lived and breathed more cleanly and naturally. | Colossal Biosciences

Why start a de-extinction and species preservation company? We have plenty of reasons. Our Chief Science Officer, Dr. Beth Shapiro, highlights a couple: today’s extinction rate is 1,000x higher than the baseline in the fossil record, and the pace of environmental change is outstripping evolution’s ability to keep up. The biggest disaster of all would be doing nothing. | Colossal Biosciences
