US start-up Colossal Biosciences has announced that the giant moa has joined the woolly mammoth, dodo and thylacine on its list of animals that it is trying to bring back from the dead.
Announcement has provoked public excitement and deep scepticism from many experts about whether it is possible to resurrect the bird.
Colossal Biosciences says its work is helping to slow the rampant ongoing loss of biodiversity by returning functions lost to ecosystems when animals such as mammoth, moa and dodo go extinct.
Company strongly reject claims that de-extinction is not possible.
But moa expert Nic Rawlence says there is little chance of bringing giant birds back from the dead.
