The headline is misleading. The scientists are going to try to produce an Asian elephant/mammoth hybrid.

I think there were a few herds alive around 2000-2500 years ago on a few artic islands above Russia.

It’s not a question of if these scientist can resurrect the Woolley Mammoth.The question is should they do it?and where does it stop?

What could possibly go wrong?

Okay, the mammoth has immunity to a common flu bug, the flu bug evolves to overcome the mammoth’s immunity, and at the same time it develops resistance to the human immunity, BAM! 20,000,000 people die.

But it is cool, and is worth messing with.

We don’t need more wooly mammoths, we need more empty headed big boobed blondes. Where are their priorities.

“...the Harvard team is just two years away from creating a hybrid embryo, in which mammoth traits would be programmed into an Asian elephant.”


After that, can we get a hybrid of the Founding Fathers and a Terminator? I think that such would be FAR more entertaining than watching an elephant with attitude eat grass and poop.
