We all know Manny from the "Ice Age" series is fictional; however, did you know they are planning on cloning a mammoth in the near future? Yes, we can all see Manny, Sid and Diego interact soon as long as the wooly mammoth DNA does not get destroyed as they are inserting it in an elephant.
Founded in Siberia, the DNA is frozen now and researchers are experimenting with it. The elephant and mammoth are closely related so research shows soon how we might just be able to see a fully cloned extinct animal which blows my mind. If this goes through, think about the opportunities it opens up for generations ahead from us! It sheds an undying light for what the future can hold, and expands the way things are seen.
It is still questioned if what these scientists are doing is wrong. Americans argue that it is not right to bring back what was already dead and gone for thousands of years into today's life. It should be concerning to us because what we are used to can change for the worse and it can be a destruction in the mist. The wooly mammoths vital necessitates are hard to meet for them to live on their own. Although, it would be nice to see what doors this new technology can open, is it appropriate for nature?
I really like your topic its really interesting I never thought about this but I can honestly agree that it's not right to bring back what was already dead and gone for thousands of years into today's life.
