🐊 Revival Process

You can revive extinct animals in a simple way:
First, you need to extract the fossil from an Encased Fossil. To encase a fossil, right-click it while holding Plaster in your hand.

Next, you need to craft an Analyzer. Using Common Nucleotides, the fossil you extracted, and a Disk Drive, you'll successfully create a Period Disk. Right-clicking with the Period Disk in your hand will give you a DNA Disk.

To complete the revival process, you'll need a Vat Machine. With the DNA Disk, Nutrients, and DNA Nucleotides, you'll successfully craft a Spawn Egg.
