With cloning techniques it is technically possible to use the live dna gathered from frozen mammoths and impregnate an elephant with them. Would you like to see this done?

i think that would be awsome.people laughed at jurrasic park;"oh that could never happen".but look now only a decade or so since the movie came out and now it is a very real possability.our science has progressed so much that we may even be able to rebirth a time in history that was believed to have passed and could never return.

When mammoths were frozen the DNA would have deteriorated and even if there was some DNA it would most likely not be enough to clone an entire animal this is why Jurassic Park could not happen (well not until many many years into the future maybe).

Yes.
I'm not sure any such DNA has been gathered though. After 12,000+ years, I'd expect the nuclear DNA to be in fragments.

Yep, it would be a great animal to provide a food source to people and animals that live in extremely cold parts to the world.

No, we don't need any more animals locked up in zoos. RIP Wooly Mammoths!!

Sure, as long asd they're not totally roaming around free. When they're let loose, Juarissic Park happens.

Oh heck yeah! I'd ride it to work each day and would slide down its tusks in order to get down.

Sure, why not. There's plenty of room where they used to live around Siberia etc...

i'll like to see 1 ,but not to reclone enough to bring back its population.
