I do not think they will succeed.
They are using the DNA from a 100 year old Thylacine specimen preserved at the Melbourne Museum.
They will need to fully sequence the genome, so far they have partially sequenced the genome.
They will need to find a compatible surrogate, they are talking about the small Dunnart.
An almost impossible task which may take decades.
