Frozen wolf pup stomach tissue produced a complete woolly rhino genome, implying stable genetics right before extinction hit fast.
A wolf puppy's frozen stomach contents have upended theories on the woolly rhinoceros extinction, revealing a genetically healthy population that vanished abruptly around 14,000 years ago.
A 14,400-year-old wolf puppy’s last meal is shedding light on the last days of one of the Ice Age’s most iconic megafauna ...

An unusual DNA source shows woolly rhinos did not slowly decline genetically, pointing instead to rapid climate warming.
Genetic disorders occur due to alterations in the primary genetic material—deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)—of an organism.
Researchers have extracted DNA and recovered the rhino's genome from a chunk of undigested meat from the stomach contents ...
Understanding human gene function in living organisms has long been hampered by fundamental differences between species.
