Cloning Very Large Extinct Animals in Five Years

Dwarf Mammoth Comparison

Clone Something REALLY big. 

What do you think of using science to clone a Mammoth?  Do you think this is something that we actually need?  What animal would be more useful?  Looking at the extinct animal list, I would think it would be more useful to clone an animal that has become extinct like the DoDo because of our stupidity rather than because of nature.  We didn't kill off the Mammoths, they were killed of by nature.  Leave them dead and increase the number of endangered animals that have actual places to live on this planet.

The scary thing about this is I could see people wanting to clone their deceased relatives not realizing that you have the genetic code for the body but not for the soul that was in it.

I love technology but I don't think this is the best use of this technology. If you want to read more about Professor Akani Iritani click here.

You're assuming we didn't kill them off. That's actually a highly contentious debate.

Hi Trav, Contentious debate! I love those. Do you really think there were enough of us back then to kill off the mammoths? I thought we only had sticks back then and that our brains were bigger but less intelligent.
