  • 42,000 year old foal found frozen in time.

    In Russia they found a complete frozen foal with blood and urine.

    (CNN)Russian researchers have found liquid blood and urine inside the frozen carcass of a foal that died 42,000 years ago in Siberia's Verkhoyansk region.

    The animal's body fluids were extracted during an autopsy and tested in the hope of cloning the extinct species, according to Semyon Grigoriev, director of the Mammoth Museum at Northeastern Federal University (NEFU) in Yakutsk.
    Mammoth tusk hunters discovered the ancient foal embedded in the permafrost of the massive Batagaika crater during the summer of 2018, on a day when the temperature had plummeted to -67.8 degrees Celsius (-90 degrees Fahrenheit).

        This is actually the second time researchers have extracted liquid blood from the remains of a prehistoric creature. Back in 2013 Russian scientists accomplished the same feat using the body of a 15,000 year old female woolly mammoth.

          One important consequence of this discovery is the genetic material related to the evolution of the horse.

              the correct answer was "Talk about bleeding a dead horse!" but we appreciate your efforts in this matter
