Using a fossilized leg bone preserved in permafrost, scientists decipher the genetic code of a wild horse that lived in the Yukon about 700,000 years ago.
Researchers have unraveled the genetic code of a wild horse that loped across the frozen Yukon about 700,000 years ago, making it the oldest creature by far to reveal its DNA to modern science.
