46,000-year-old prehistoric worms from the Ice Age preserved in permafrost
brought back to life by scientists A microscopic roundworm – a previously unknown species of nematode – was extracted from permafrost near the Kolyma River in the northeastern Arctic. The nematodes were reanimated after being extracted from the frozen permafrost in Siberia, according to a study published Thursday in the journal PLOS Genetics. The undescribed species were named Panagrolaimus kolymaensis by scientists. Making the reanimation of the ancient roundworm after 46,000 years more extraordinary is that the typical lifespan of Panagrolaimus kolymaensis is just one to two months. https://www.theblaze.com/news/prehis...ian-permafrost |
