Blurry Hysteria: Mammoth Mice and the Most Improbable Pregnancy Ever | 417

Science is weird, but this week, it’s downright prehistoric and miraculous. First up, researchers are bringing back a piece of the Ice Age by splicing woolly mammoth genes into live mice. What could possibly go wrong? We discuss the latest in de-extinction efforts, the ethical dilemmas, and whether these tiny, furry Frankensteins might be the first step toward full-blown Jurassic Park madness.


Then, hold onto your reproductive health textbooks because the next story is one for the medical history books. A teenager managed to get pregnant without the traditional method—let’s just say it involved oral sex and some deeply unfortunate circumstances. We break down the insane details of this once-in-a-blue-moon medical mystery, the science behind how it could even happen, and why reality just keeps proving stranger than fiction. All that and more this week on a Blurry Hysteria edition of Hysteria 51!
