Well-preserved Ice Age woolly rhino is recovered in Siberia
MOSCOW – A well-preserved Ice Age woolly rhino with many of its internal organs still intact has been recovered from permafrost in Russia’s extreme north. Russian media reported Wednesday that the carcass was revealed by melting permafrost in Yakutia in August. Scientists are waiting for ice roads in the Arctic region to become passable to deliver it to a lab for studies next month. The carcass has most of its soft tissues still intact, including part of the intestines, thick hair and a lump of fat. Its horn was found next to it.

Maybe they will try some Jurassic Park stuff and try and mix the DNA with some Rhino DNA... don’t really see the point though

Isn't it amazing how long some things can stick around to enlighten us many years later?
