Should Scientists use New Cloning Techniques to bring back the Wooly Mammoth?
Extinct animals frozen in death such as the woolly mammoth could be “resurrected” after scientists made a breakthrough in cloning. Until now cloning has only been achieved using live donor cells, but now researchers from Japan have created new healthy mice using cells from dead bodies kept frozen for 16 years. Cloning from thawed frozen cells was previously thought to be impossible. This is from an article at Telegraph.co.uk entitled, Wooly Mammoths could be resurrected after cloning breakthrough.
