## Resource

Colossal Biosciences, a Texas-based company, has made a groundbreaking achievement by hatching live chicks from artificial eggs. These eggs, made of titanium with a bio-engineered membrane, could revolutionize bird reproduction and conservation efforts. The company aims to use this technology to revive extinct species like the dodo and the giant moa. They plan to test the method with emu and ostrich eggs before attempting de-extinction projects.
