- mminer237 4y agoThe Pyrenean ibex was de-extincted for 7 minutes: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/news-bucardo-pyrenean-ibex-deextinction-cloning https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/news-buca... There are a number of other candidates, though. I would guess either the thylacine, the woolly mammoth, or the passenger pigeon would be first to sustain an actual population, but I don't really follow the projects: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De-extinction#Current_candidates_for_de-extinction https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De-extinction#Current_candidat...
