About the Project

Since 2012, Revive & Restore has worked to bring biotechnology to standard conservation practices, including biobanking, cloning, and de-extinction. In 2020, we helped create the world’s first cloned Przewalski’s horse, Kurt. That same year, we helped create the world’s first cloned black-footed ferret, Elizabeth Ann. Both Kurt and Elizabeth Ann highlight the genetic tools we advance to save endangered species globally.
