    You are completely wrong. Moran.

    It's more like Jurassic Park 2. Some people...

    Well technically they would do better during a ice age. They were more adapted to cold than to heat.

    Yeah, didn’t this complete work of fiction teach us anything. Just like Signs taught us that when aliens come to this world we should just spray water over them.

    No nobody thought of that. Well except of the 4 posters who poster about Jurassic park before you I this thread.


    That being said. Humans cannot even keep the current animals from extinction, why ad one who was already extinct.

    The scientists are so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop and think about if they should.

    this reminds me of that one movie where they resurrected dinosaurs using old dna samples and then everything went t*** up and a bunch of people died.

    i forget what it was called.

    Jurassic Park showed us that, resurrecting interest in wives and girlfriends would be nice. Or maybe we shouldnt get to ahead of ourselves and learn to appreciate what we already take for granted

    I don't think this a good idea. I mean, it's pretty much like Jurassic Park all over again.

    The lack of humility before nature that's being displayed here, uh... staggers me.

    I told my friends about this story and they all thought it would be so cool to have them back, these are 30 year old men.

    Here is my problems with it.

    First off the mammoth was huge, how can you stick a mammoth embryo inside of modern day elephant and not expect the mother to split in two when it is time for the birth?

    Where do you put the mammoth after it is born? In a zoo? You bring a creature back from extinction to stick it in a 100 by 100 foot area?

    What the heck does this thing eat? Who is going to make sure it doesn’t mess up an eco system that you drop it in?

    Lastly I am okay with cloning I guess. I think if we could bring back some of the recently extinct animals that died off because of man messing up their natural habitats or killing off their food source, then sure go ahead. But there is no need to bring a t-rex back to life just because you can.
