Scientists estimate that the animal reportedly died up to 50,000 years ago, well before the end of the last ice age, at just two or three months old. Now they have a unique opportunity to study the lion cub's intact DNA and organs to get insight into the lives of ancient cave lions and ice age mammals in general.
Sinogene, a lab based in Beijing, became the first to clone a dog through gene-editing technology, which allows them to identify, copy, and reproduce genetic information from dogs. The first cloned canine, a beagle pup named Longlong, was born in May and two others followed suit.
