Dead for 32,000 Years, an Arctic Plant Is Revived. Living plants have been generated from the fruit of a little arctic flower, the narrow-leafed campion, that died 32,000 years ago.... The fruit was stored by an arctic ground squirrel in its burrow on the tundra of northeastern Siberia and lay permanently frozen until excavated by scientists a few years ago.
