The Pyrenean ibex, also known as the bouquetin (French) and bucardo (Spanish), is the only animal to have survived de-extinction past birth through cloning.. De-extinction (also known as resurrection biology, or species revivalism) is the process of generating an organism that either resembles or is an extinct species. [1]
Colossal Biosciences, the Texas-based company working to bring the woolly mammoth out of extinction, has partnered with the Mauritian Wildlife Foundation to do the same to the dodo bird.

[1] It is an extension of the conservation practice of rewilding, which aims to restore functioning, self-sustaining ecosystems through practices that may include species reintroductions.
