I don’t see the harm-it is pretty much a furry elephant. If they could be sheared every Spring, that wool would make a lot of pricey rugs...

“Cloned Mammoths also would be different in behavior, since they would not have mammoth parents to raise them.”

Having PARENTS doesn’t matter, Silly! It takes a VILLAGE (i.e. Mother Government) to raise a Mammoth these days!

*SMIRK*

[Forward the Light Brigade]

They would be a great addition to any Zoo—and if they could be trained—any circus. We could learn alot and they may even taste good.

Crichton’s fiction was SPOT ON in so many areas! *SHUDDER*

Sure miss that guy...

I assume the dude with the Bosch demolition hammer drill is doing some serious tissue sampling and that is why he’s wearing a particulate mask to avoid contamination. Nice try, but when I use that sucker I always have PPE for the eyes, too. Nothing like a tissue fragment or spatter of body fluids to get whatever Jumbo might be carrying. Heck, even dentists suit up these days.

“OK, but you have to use a spear.”

A spear gun!

[MV=PY]

Whoa! Is that guy drilling a woolly mammoth?

[WorkingClassFilth]

Is that his family?

[trisham]

Cool.

[The Sons of Liberty]

0bama supporters

[The Grammarian]

Fus....ROH DAH!

[Dusty Road]

Ron Perlman, the only one in the cast that didn’t need makeup.

[TADSLOS]

Obama supporters

Hardly. They are hunters, providing food for everyone, including the Obama supporters taking up space in their cave.

[Little Bill]

Not necessarily I want to see a full frontal of MS Chong.

[bgill]

Bring back T-Rex and sabre toothed tigers!

Rae Dawn was a modern human prototype in that movie; she had been captured by Neanderthals and was being kept tied to a tree for later consumption. A male tied with her had an arm missing, which was shown cooking in the Neanderthals’ fire. That was a memorable movie except for the title. Something about fire, I think.

[Little Bill]

I am surprised that the hero, male, could keep it up after his reception in the village.

Probably because she was the only non fat broad in the Ville.

[JimRed]

Whoa! Is that guy drilling a woolly mammoth?

Probably drilling into the bone for a marrow sample, protected better than other DNA.

[Little Bill]

Search For Fire.

[JimRed]

Just BINGed it up; Quest For Fire.
