The scientists from the Sakha Republic's mammoth museum and Kinki University's graduate school will begin research next year to regenerate the huge mammal, which became extinct about 10,000 years ago. They will transplant nuclei from the bone marrow cells into elephant egg cells whose nuclei were removed through a type of cloning. The process can create an embryo that can be planted into an elephant womb for birth. For scientists involved in the research since the late 1990s, finding nuclei with undamaged mammoth genes has been a challenge, AFP reported. But the discovery in August of the well-preserved thighbone in Siberia increased the chances of a successful cloning. http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2011/12/03/japanese-and-russian-scientists-may-be-able-to-clone-mammoth/?test=latestnews ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Since there is already a clamor about to many people on earth and not enough room, why would anyone clone such a huge animal?

One would feed a lot of people. Taste? Don't know, but I should think texture a bit like buffalo, dry and tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HisG Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) Awww scientists, leave the mammoth alone!!!!!! http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/04/090420-baby-mammoth-photo.html There's a near perfect baby mammoth on display (isn't he a cutesy pie??) ...do we really need to have live ones? The world has changed since they last walked this planet ...let them rest in peace Edited December 4, 2011 by HisG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First we have to many people on earth now they want clones. Don't they realize these clones will be full fledged humans? Do they think clones will be subservient? Why would a clone want to give up any part of his body? Would you? 22 reasons for cloning humans should be 2200 reasons not to clone a human.

I have not idea what they mean by pharmaceutical products beneficial for humans??? On the one hand they want our guns, then they clone deer for 'better stock' for hunters. This appears to be an excuse to do as they want to do. Cobalt, I had figured the meat would be tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
