Scientists were successful in defrosting a woolly rhino who remained frozen in the Siberian permafrost for at least 25,000-40,000 years. The rhino was 8-foot-long and reportedly died 25,000 to 40,000 years ago. According to Dr. Valery Plotnikov, the chief researcher at Mammoth Fauna Study Department, the rhino was very well fed when it died at the age of 3 or 4. The Rhino's under-skin fat was preserved in the form of a powder.
