I thought they were going to start cloneing these with the DNA from the frozen carcases in Siberia?

They adapted to their new environment by growing thick, "woolly" fur and smaller ears, which helped conserve heat,
and possibly by changing their DNA. What an odd sentence. Can an animal change its ear size without there being a mutation in its DNA?

Sounds like a creative grant application to me.

They didn't have a woolly mammoth blood sample, so they made the hemoglobin protein in the laboratory by using fragmented DNA sequences from three mammoths that died in Siberia between 25,000 and 43,000 years ago. Didn't we learn anything from the movie Jurrasic Park"?
Sheesh.

For Real??? I’m gonna be the first in line for some government largesse to try to discover how sub tropical plants these behemoths grazed on were adapted to survive the cold also. My thesis: Megafuana couldn’t survive without megaflora, or at least great green gobs of miniflora. I’ll be rich!!!
