The result of such gentic cloning around will be a grizzly site. I bet den bucks it won't work. And if it does, sow what?
I agree. When it comes to genetic manipulation, I tend to go nuclear. As I've stated elsewhere, tampering with the species in question is especially treacherous, because you know as well as I, that even if it's all confined to the la-bear-tory for now, everyone will want to start homebruin and it's well known that just that first bear has led to the ruin of many hives.
