THIS PIECE CELEBRATES THE STORY BEHIND THE DE WINTON'S GOLDEN MOLE. IT WAS LAST SEEN IN 1937 AND DECLARED OFFICIALLY LOST BUT WAS REDISCOVERED IN NOVEMBER 2023 THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL DNA TRACKING AFTER NEARLY 86 YEARS OF ELUDING SCIENTISTS DUE TO ITS ELUSIVE NATURE AND UNDERGROUND HABITAT. CONSERVATIONISTS AND GENETICISTS FROM VARIOUS INSTITUTIONS FOUND THE MOLE BY COLLECTING SOIL SAMPLES FROM ITS UNDERGROUND TUNNELS AND SEQUENCING THE ENVIRONMENTAL DNA, MARKING A SIGNIFICANT BREAKTHROUGH IN NON-INVASIVE SPECIES DETECTION METHODS.
