What's the value proposition for creating wooly mammoths? How do you monetize it? Selling them to James Bob villains?

The wooly mammoths are test runs in case the left need to revive Lenin or Biden.

The achievement is still far from the ultimate goal of creating herds of giant hairy beasts roaming in the wild again


Prey animals need predators to keep them in check. Next up the Smilodon and the Short Faced Bear.

And they will be released into the wild and declared an endangered species so private property rights can be abolished to save the mammoths.

Reintroducing elephants with woolly mammoth traits could also help fight global warming by restoring ecosystems in ways that would help reduce the amount of carbon being released into the atmosphere, Church said.

I knew that would be a globull warming connection.

There always is.

Have they not watched Jurassic Park?

What is wrong with these people?

What could possibly go wrong?

Just because they can does not mean they should.

It's research and I love it. But it does remind me of this ...

“”help reduce the amount of carbon being released into the atmosphere””

Reducing the amount of carbon dioxide means reducing plant life. Therefore, all plant-eating animals will have less to eat. I can just hear the response from the Globull Hoaxers “we will teach the Wooly Mammoths to eat bugs.”

Also, just how much methane does each Mammoth produce? Will they now develop the Wooly Mammoth Carbon Credit Scheme? Who will have the marvelous job of measuring the Mammoth methane?

Great, so now instead of just wild turkey's and deer trashing my yard I can have mammoths. I wonder how they taste?

No worries, the honey badger is still abundant. :D

Large prey animals need large predators, not midgets.
