Hemsworth brothers’ bid to bring the Tasmanian tiger back from the dead

The Hemsworth brothers have backed a push to bring the Tasmanian tiger back to life.

The Australian actors are behind a company investing in a Melbourne University project to bring back the thylacine.

Professor Andrew Pask from the School of BioSciences as Melbourne University says he’s confident the project will succeed.

“We have actually every bit of technology we need to do it,” he told Ross and Russel.

“It is a really big job to try and engineer an animal back from the dead, but I’m convinced we’ll get there.”
