Getting closer to Jurassic Park – Harvard scientists clone mammoths
The woolly mammoth shares 99.6% of its DNA with the Asian elephant, leading scientists to believe they are well on their way to achieving their goal. “In the minds of many, this animal has disappeared forever. But not in the minds of our scientists and not in the laboratories of our company. We are already in the process of resurrecting the woolly mammoth. Our teams have collected viable DNA samples and are editing genes that will allow this remarkable megafauna to roam the Arctic again.” The long-extinct woolly mammoth will return from oblivion by 2027, according to Colossal, a biotech company actively working on the reincarnation of the ancient beast.
Scientists are really into animal cloning
Cloning is a reality of our time; similar scientific activities are carried out all over the world; most often, pets are cloned. For example, to date, ViaGen Pets has produced more than a thousand completely healthy individuals of various species. However, although the cloned animals are raised in the United States, the company ships cloned pets to other countries.
