But the discovery in August of the well-preserved thigh bone in Siberia has increased the chances of a successful cloning.
Global warming has thawed ground in eastern Russia that is usually almost permanently frozen, leading to the discoveries of a number of frozen mammoths, the report said.
Of course, this raises other concerns – what does it mean for a species to go extinct anymore? And what of the laws intended to protect it? Story via Marginal Revolution.
Interesting angle on the story.
Some people were excited about the idea of mammoth steaks. I’m more interested in what it means for shoes. I’m already a big fan of shell cordovan. This could be another option. I wonder what an abattoir for mammoths would look like?
And I forgot, lots of ivory!
Just what we need, mammoths. Maybe they eat kudzu and stink bugs. Speedmaster beat me to the punch about the steaks and the ivory.
I also liked, “…usually always permanently frozen.”
That describes one of my old computers, the 486 running Windows 3.11. Speedmaster will get a chuckle about that.
LOL!! 😉
A herd of mammoths dwaddling across I-80 between Big Springs and Denver is going to slow up some parcel post deliveries.
