The cell nuclei were extracted from Yuka, a female woolly mammoth about 3.5 meters long excavated nearly intact in 2010 from permafrost in Siberia

New findings indicate that the resurrection of mammoths is not a fantasy, a research team including members from Kindai University is saying, after cell nuclei extracted from the 28,000-year-old remains of a woolly mammoth were discovered to retain some function.

The team includes researchers from Japanese and Russian universities. It has been working for about 20 years on a project to use cloning to resurrect mammoths, an animal that has long been extinct.

Probably smarter than the idiots walking around?

A wonderful find, but I question whether bringing woolly mammoths back into existence is a step worth taking.

Waking up the dead is never a good idea.

That picture is so cool. Everyone in the comments is so paranoid 😂😂😂 the only scary thing is some virus or bacteria in the ice, not giant animals

China is where the dinosaur bones are made

Just because they did it in the movies doesn’t mean you should actually do it!

Oh oh ! Hmm sounds unwise. “ let sleeping mammoths lie. “.

Great !- Jurassic Park is soon to unfold

What could go wrong?
