Could gene-edited ‘super quolls’ fight back against cane toads?

Colossal Biosciences plans to breed genetically engineered northern quolls to withstand cane toad toxin, with the first litter expected in about a year. The company aims to alter a single gene that ensures resistance to the toxin, potentially saving the endangered species. If successful, this could also aid other native wildlife affected by invasive cane toads.
