Not sure if cloning extinct creatures is our best idea yet. It usually ends with Chris Pratt having to walk backwards while talking to them in a soothing voice.
In 2000, I remember watching Raising the Mammoth on the Discovery Channel. They mentioned recovering the DNA to clone a mammoth. 23 years later and we still don’t have a mammoth.
Exactly. This is just an excuse to do CRISPR research without getting much backlash. Only now they've introduced the climate change narrative into their hypothesis to keep funding coming in. I don't deny that the mammoths had an impact, but I highly doubt it's a measurable impact at all.
Love that Forrest always emphasizes where his actual knowledge base is. I am a Biochem major in university rn, and explaining the cellular processes of CRISPR is tricky as hell, so to just kinda say "this is the general concept and idk the details of this side of the science, but here's some dope info about what I do know" is definitely a sign of someone who is really passionate about the science. Have him on more please lol.
Just watch Jurassic Park for an explanation. Mr DNA explains it perfectly fine on how they filled the holes of the genetic code with that of certain frogs. Same here; they fill the holes in the mammoth dna with that of Indian elephants.
i agree, hes one of mt fav guests to have on, always interesting topics. and he seems genuinely passionate not like some bias agenda pushing types y'know.
I loved the 1st 2 Forrest podcasts. But not this one. Subjects to me, were uninteresting & often lacking clarity. Previous ones spoke of lions, octopuses, turtles, etc... This one about Big Foot.
I’m not kidding you but when I was around 10 years old (20 years ago) they said they would be able to clone mammoths using frozen mammoths and elephants to clone and it would take about 20 years. This blows my mind.
The fact that ppl think a Hollywood action movie is a useful means of information to warn us about cloning is ignorant af. It’s crazy how much Hollywood influences us and our decisions unconsciously.
Wild. Remember seeing the discovery of the frozen mammoth as a little kid. They talked a lot about how they didn’t have the technology yet, but that they were harvesting it’s DNA to soon in the near feature be able to clone a elephant mammoth hybrid and essentially fully bring back the mammoth species. Didn’t hear much else about it for the next 20yrs and now it’s back in the cycle being talked about. Kinda cool really I thought they were planning to introduce more and more DNA into the elephants over their generations to where ya eventually have some 75/25% mammoth hybrid reproducing w/ another 75/25% mammoth hybrid to generate a genetically pure bred mammoth offspring. The punnet square math may be wrong, but that was the concept that I took from their hypothesis

This guy spouts so much bullshit to get everyone hyped. Wooly Mammoths? Guarantee nothing happens there.

That wouldn't be possible because the DNA is unusable it's just fossilized, essentially rock, you can literally eat mammoth meat today, they're not that hard to find
Imagine they reintroduce the mammoths back and find out they don’t take well to the arctic because they were warmer weather animals in the first place like the Younger Dryas theory suggests.

With all due respect, they aren't going to be successful at this the way they are trying, the molecules just aren't there to do it. What is missing is the proteins/enzymes that control the epigenome. What the scientists have is the blueprint for a Mammoth, they lack the machinery that constructs it.

Once we have enough understanding on protein folding and how to use that, we'll use it to construct cells and then larger structures. Once you put those structures together you just back track from the completed animals form to the initial cell needed.

@@FightingSportsMedia I don't give a damn about cloning, but I find this guy's real experience in the field fascinating as he is a professional BIOLOGIST. How many times do you get the chance to listen to an actual, degreed biologist who goes out to the field fill us in on what's up?
When he was discussing about DNA re-structuring, I was thinking of that short animated clip from the park tour in the 1st Jurassic Park movie. He basically repeated just about everything with replacing the missing codes of the extinct animal and replacing them with the current genetic codes of similar animal.
I'm genuinely curious how this will even work. Zoologist for years tried hard to cross breed an Asian Elephant with an African Elephant, and it almost always ended with a miscarriage, stillborn, or in one case a live hybrid, however the baby died just a few hours later. I also think it's rather silly to introduce a species (especially a megafauna) into an ecosystem that has recovered and moved on from the ecosystem that existed back when the Mammoths were alive.
Ya that's definitely like a plot in a weird B movie where you'd b like that sounds silly. It's also like a chicken ans the egg thing. Did they go extinct bcuz of the warming temps and couldnt adapt, or did humans hunt them just enough to where the temps started warming bcuz there wasnt enough Mammoths to do the tundra grassland thing. Also ig the idea is to see how reintroducing one Mammoth back into wildlife would do, and then clone a few more, than hopefully over time they would naturally breed with each other raising the population of the species
Well the idea is for the other grazers to do the bulk of the stomping/grazing. And the prehistoric beasts just tree-knock. Each one is like a free-roaming bulldozer that doesn’t guzzle gas. And if it’s the legitimization for us to bring back the fluffertrunks, let’s roll with it.
The argument that knocking trees down will save the planet seems like something a kindergartener might suggest. So we should all take axes and cut down the trees in our front yard? At 4:50 he says that's essentially his theory: fewer trees = less heat 🤡
This is super cool and I think the science behind it is amazing and potentially very helpful. There is a side of me that’s scared, but thinking about it, I don’t fear an elephant is going to come kill me at any point, so I don’t think a mammoth would be much more of a threat.
The science sounds like a load of BS. His first argument is that trees and forest make the earth hotter?? 4:50 Either he's wrong or green conservationists are wrong. His argument for why we should bring mammoths back is "so they can knock trees down" I don't have a problem with mammoths, it would be so cool to have them back, but why are we lying to each other about the science??
the short-faced bear would work even better. about 25% bigger than those huge kodiak bears and absolutely ferocious. DNA samples exist supposedly. not sure the natives will appreciate us re-creating these beasts and housing them near their lands. Especially if a few get out.....
There’s a very good book that covers this called “Woolly” by Ben Mezrich. It does a very good job of explaining cloning and genetics in laymen’s terms for dummies like me and talks about where we are in the field of genetics. It’s incredible. One of the most exciting scientific/technological leaps in human history is happening right under our noses and barely anyone is talking about it.
If you don't know the answer to something, it's okay to admit you don't know and I like that about Joe. Pretending you know when you don't know is the mistake that a lot of people make because they're afraid that they'll look stupid but then they still end up looking stupid anyway when they pretend to know the answer to something they don't. Joe asked about something he didn't know about and now he knows what an Indian Elephant is. That's how you learn.
This... This... Isn't some species... Who nature naturally selected. Not like dinosaurs, they had their chance! We KILLED all the wooly mammoths. We have evidence of that! We PAINTED that!😆
Because he says the things you want to hear... His infamous rant on dragons is like a torture to the ears of any paleontology fan, but the average rogan fan like to be fed these "what if".
@@ledernierutopiste Naww I don’t care about that stuff, I just like his conservation efforts. The guy has rediscovered 8 species that were presumed extinct. I couldn’t care less about dragons or whatever nonsense you’re referring too. You shouldn’t make assumptions like that, I’m not even really a Joe Rogan fan 😂
I would be curious to hear from people who have cloned their pets and their thoughts on if they believe the personality of the clone is the same of their original pet
No. The pet cloning industry didn't get to thrive because the clones have entirely different, and sometimes "faulty" personalities. Personality is not DNA driven, it's environment driven. It's why biologists are constantly researching questions of nature (DNA) vs nurture (environment)... Many people who don't have biological literacy falsely argue the nature vs nurture. They think it's "biology vs society", it's not, it's DNA vs environment, and gestation is a part of environment.
The cloning company also usually forgets to mention the crucial detail that your cloned animal will most likely have a shorter lifespan, because it is produced from a sample that already had lived for a good while, meaning the DNA in its cells experienced Telomere shortening through aging that will impact the life expectancy of the clone.
The phenotype of the clone is still capable of change even if it’s the same genotype, so there’s a good chance that they will be two distinct personalities
I think that keeping carbon trapped in the ground by introducing mammoths is so bizarre of an idea that it sounds like it’s all a big guessing game like everything else we haven’t got a clue about from our past!
His "science" is that mammoths knocking over trees is going to save the plant lmao. 4:50 Isn't that what bulldozers have been doing in the Amazon for decades now?!? What a clown
@@Set_Your_Handllethe Arctic is not a rain forest. For one, trees do not sequester carbon well. They focus energy into reaching upward and absorbing energy from the sun. This is what he is saying about the arctic warming due to this. Grass on the other hand sequesters amazingly. Grass instead of reaching up for sun, reaches much more down, making most of their growth in the root system. This allows snow to reflect light and for root systems to keep carbon and other nutrients in the soil for the grasses to use. Savannahs and grasslands are and have always been for more productive ecosystems than forests as well.
@@Set_Your_Handlle emphasis on burning down ie releasing the carbon built up in the body of the trees to form fire. Additionally we aren’t talking about deforestation to prefer grasslands, the Amazon is too poor soil for a productive grassland. The deforestation is a question of farming, which bring up the modern practice of mono cropping. Ie destroying the ecosystem present and replacing it with poor root structured annuals. The biggest issue with the receding of the Amazon is more a habitat distraction issue. The Amazon has the most diverse ecosystem on the planet with the highest concentration of individual species in the world.
That park has been around for at least 15 yrs. They began stocking it then. There were articles in various scientific magazines at the time. How they were creating this experimental park. It isn't just mammoths they are planning on cloning. They have the DNA of wooly rhinos cave bear, several big cats, and various smaller animals. I've followed this for years. There was a lab in Japan that was number 1 in cloning. This lab was also involved with this project. My only question is what happens when natural animal instinct takes over?
@@Wonderboywonderings No usually listen to joe Rogan every day, along with jordan Peterson, louder with crowder, ben Shapiro. Just because you quote form a movie as a joke doesn’t mean you listen to Hollywood you dmf
At the 2:30 mark when he's explaining in his own way on how the DNA to get the woolly mammoths sounds exactly how the first Jurassic Park movie explained it lol
2021: Ben Lamm announces that Mammoths will roam the earth again by 2027 2024: Ben Lamm announces that Mammoths will now roam the earth again by 2028 2026: Ben Lamm mysteriously disappears along with the "ton of raised money"
I thought one of the goals is to stop deforestation because we've wiped out so much of it. Perhaps mammoths go slower than machinery, but that's what entered my mind as soon as he started talking about knocking down huge swaths of forest. The whole area evolved into forest- it was grasslands long ago.
they wouldn't be knocking them down as they go, literally, and it's not all forest.. .There is no other animal which could do what a few thousand mamoths could...
Yes, back in 2010, the Asian teams working same goal thought they'd have succeeded by 2015. Millions of years of evolution aren't easily duplicated by arrogant humans who think they're gods.
It's sounds tricky.... cloning it with elephants used to warmer weather? How much Indian Elephant would these mammoths have compared to the "originals"? What impact would that have on them? Also, how long would it take for the mammoths to evolve to the point of knowing to knock down trees, etc? I know it's an experiment, and experiments are also to answer those questions, I guess I'm just very curious
Allegedly and there was a animal planet special on it but they try to state that mastodons in Indian elephants are also the closest relatives. I am an easy about this.
That's the kind of 💩 they have to say today to get permissions, funding, support etc. At least they beat the opponent who might say it increases carbon emissions because mammoths farts.
i know you are probably joking but thats def not possible the two animals being mixed need to be somewhat genetically related. like you can't just mix a dog with a giraffe or something the DNA wouldn't be compatible
I’ve heard about this mammoth clones since I was about 8-10 years old. I’m almost 32. If I don’t see a mammoth in my lifetime, I might a little mad 😂

And there would be a lot of big steaks on one of those suckers.
I mean, thats how they went extinct in the first place
I would still eat it
@@Ayan-bp4dq how does leather taste? I've never tried it.
This guy is one of my favourite guests! TOTALLY FASCINATING!!!
We will need Part 2 of Forrest 🙏🙏🙏🙏
oh shut up...
Have you seen
Joe Rogan asks Elon Musk HARD Questions about Cobalt Mining for TESLA Batteries 🔋 😢
This shit sounds so dumb. Animals that died off naturally should stay dead. It means the earth can't support their species. This is specifically to make money. I hope they make laws against cloning here pretty quickly.
@@ciara8294 1. ELECTRIC BATTERIES ARE BULLSH*T ... THEY WILL NEVER TAKE OVER... they are not the answer
2. MUSK HASN'T BEEN ON IN A LONG TIME -- & see JRE interview about book RED BLUE ... that's icing on the death of stupid batteries
@@FightingSportsMedia I don't give a damn about cloning, but I find this guy's real experience in the field fascinating as he is a professional BIOLOGIST. How many times do you get the chance to listen to an actual, degreed biologist who goes out to the field fill us in on what's up?
When he was discussing about DNA re-structuring, I was thinking of that short animated clip from the park tour in the 1st Jurassic Park movie. He basically repeated just about everything with replacing the missing codes of the extinct animal and replacing them with the current genetic codes of similar animal.
“…AND DIII-NOOO DEEE ENNN’ EEEEYYE’!!”
EXACTLY what I was thinking about.
Hahaha yeah!
This is getting scary AF and interesting AF at the same time.
Dang Forrest with the Wooly Mammoth Beard! Happy to see him back on and always look forward to hearing him speak about his passion!
Has the moorman beard on point
I'm genuinely curious how this will even work. Zoologist for years tried hard to cross breed an Asian Elephant with an African Elephant, and it almost always ended with a miscarriage, stillborn, or in one case a live hybrid, however the baby died just a few hours later.
I also think it's rather silly to introduce a species (especially a megafauna) into an ecosystem that has recovered and moved on from the ecosystem that existed back when the Mammoths were alive.
10 days later not hours
Forest is 💯 % one of my fav guest ever!
I love when Forrest is on! Love to listen to him talk and it’s interesting
great to have you back Forrest! my favorite JRE guest.
Joe is so fascinated with mammals I love it 😂
I’ve been hearing about this for years now and still no mammoths. This all sounds more pie-in-the sky than reality.
It’s because science isn’t instant us humans in the modern day need instant gratification or else we loose interest
How enthusiastic and confident this guy sounded, i better see a baby Woolly Mammoth by 2025
I want to go see it in person! I hope they let the public go take a look
@@karmasutra4774 💸💸
The timeline for a mammoth calf is 2028 not 2025
That making the Artic cooler logic is something a crazy scientist would say. Would they be able to clone millions of mammoths to balance the offset?
mammoth make big doo doo
Ya that's definitely like a plot in a weird B movie where you'd b like that sounds silly. It's also like a chicken ans the egg thing. Did they go extinct bcuz of the warming temps and couldnt adapt, or did humans hunt them just enough to where the temps started warming bcuz there wasnt enough Mammoths to do the tundra grassland thing.
Also ig the idea is to see how reintroducing one Mammoth back into wildlife would do, and then clone a few more, than hopefully over time they would naturally breed with each other raising the population of the species
That sounded like straight bs
Well the idea is for the other grazers to do the bulk of the stomping/grazing. And the prehistoric beasts just tree-knock. Each one is like a free-roaming bulldozer that doesn’t guzzle gas. And if it’s the legitimization for us to bring back the fluffertrunks, let’s roll with it.
The argument that knocking trees down will save the planet seems like something a kindergartener might suggest. So we should all take axes and cut down the trees in our front yard? At 4:50 he says that's essentially his theory: fewer trees = less heat 🤡
I saw this movie … everything goes great
One of my favorite JRE guests!
This is super cool and I think the science behind it is amazing and potentially very helpful. There is a side of me that’s scared, but thinking about it, I don’t fear an elephant is going to come kill me at any point, so I don’t think a mammoth would be much more of a threat.
The science sounds like a load of BS. His first argument is that trees and forest make the earth hotter?? 4:50 Either he's wrong or green conservationists are wrong. His argument for why we should bring mammoths back is "so they can knock trees down"
I don't have a problem with mammoths, it would be so cool to have them back, but why are we lying to each other about the science??
Joe's reaction makes this all the more funny to me.
Joe imagines himself hunting a T-Rex with a bow.
Next year : We are bringing back a T-rex to offset the Mammoths
Bringing back the past to fix the future...
Seems like a solid plan.
the short-faced bear would work even better. about 25% bigger than those huge kodiak bears and absolutely ferocious. DNA samples exist supposedly. not sure the natives will appreciate us re-creating these beasts and housing them near their lands. Especially if a few get out.....
There’s a very good book that covers this called “Woolly” by Ben Mezrich. It does a very good job of explaining cloning and genetics in laymen’s terms for dummies like me and talks about where we are in the field of genetics. It’s incredible. One of the most exciting scientific/technological leaps in human history is happening right under our noses and barely anyone is talking about it.
I can't believe Joe had to ask, "what is an Indian elephant?"
well I've never heard them called an Indian elephant. they've always been Asian elephants.... considering that they are not exclusively in India
If you don't know the answer to something, it's okay to admit you don't know and I like that about Joe. Pretending you know when you don't know is the mistake that a lot of people make because they're afraid that they'll look stupid but then they still end up looking stupid anyway when they pretend to know the answer to something they don't. Joe asked about something he didn't know about and now he knows what an Indian Elephant is. That's how you learn.
@@greybush6939 I've always known them as Indian elephants.
As long as i can get a side of curly fries with my Mammoth burger, I'm all for it
I like the idea of curly fries much more than the actual product.
@@Paul-vf2wl nacho fries are the best thou 🍟
I assume Forrest has been eating all the non extinct animals he’s found
So what if he eats meat
and how would anyone eat extinct animal meat?
Like cows, chickens, fish, deer….what is your point?
@@vincentvega5686 people eat mammoth meat today that was frozen
@@mikepalmer1971 oh nothing I was just commenting on the pounds he’s packed on in the past few years since his last Jre appearance
How is this man not one of the most famous people ever he is bringing notice to the most important things
Mammoths had their time.
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."
This... This... Isn't some species... Who nature naturally selected. Not like dinosaurs, they had their chance!
We KILLED all the wooly mammoths. We have evidence of that! We PAINTED that!😆
Forrest Galante is definitely my favourite JRE guests. Great guy who creates amazing content and helps animals at the same time 💪
Because he says the things you want to hear... His infamous rant on dragons is like a torture to the ears of any paleontology fan, but the average rogan fan like to be fed these "what if".
@@ledernierutopiste Naww I don’t care about that stuff, I just like his conservation efforts. The guy has rediscovered 8 species that were presumed extinct.
I couldn’t care less about dragons or whatever nonsense you’re referring too. You shouldn’t make assumptions like that, I’m not even really a Joe Rogan fan 😂
De-extinction has no "helping animals" goals, it's all about profits.
@@tallard666 That’s not what I was referring to.
I swear Forrest is one of the best guests on the show
💯💯
this guy was just born to be a conservationist/explorer with a name like that
I would be curious to hear from people who have cloned their pets and their thoughts on if they believe the personality of the clone is the same of their original pet
No. The pet cloning industry didn't get to thrive because the clones have entirely different, and sometimes "faulty" personalities. Personality is not DNA driven, it's environment driven. It's why biologists are constantly researching questions of nature (DNA) vs nurture (environment)... Many people who don't have biological literacy falsely argue the nature vs nurture. They think it's "biology vs society", it's not, it's DNA vs environment, and gestation is a part of environment.
It's not the same animal- has a distinctly different personality. I know of someone who did that and he's shared details of it.
The cloning company also usually forgets to mention the crucial detail that your cloned animal will most likely have a shorter lifespan, because it is produced from a sample that already had lived for a good while, meaning the DNA in its cells experienced Telomere shortening through aging that will impact the life expectancy of the clone.
The phenotype of the clone is still capable of change even if it’s the same genotype, so there’s a good chance that they will be two distinct personalities
Most say its not the same pet ...just a look a.like
I think that keeping carbon trapped in the ground by introducing mammoths is so bizarre of an idea that it sounds like it’s all a big guessing game like everything else we haven’t got a clue about from our past!
His "science" is that mammoths knocking over trees is going to save the plant lmao. 4:50
Isn't that what bulldozers have been doing in the Amazon for decades now?!? What a clown
@@Set_Your_Handllethe Arctic is not a rain forest.
For one, trees do not sequester carbon well. They focus energy into reaching upward and absorbing energy from the sun. This is what he is saying about the arctic warming due to this.
Grass on the other hand sequesters amazingly. Grass instead of reaching up for sun, reaches much more down, making most of their growth in the root system. This allows snow to reflect light and for root systems to keep carbon and other nutrients in the soil for the grasses to use.
Savannahs and grasslands are and have always been for more productive ecosystems than forests as well.
@@Leo-vr3bg Then explain the problem with burning down our rainforests
@@Set_Your_Handlle emphasis on burning down ie releasing the carbon built up in the body of the trees to form fire.
Additionally we aren’t talking about deforestation to prefer grasslands, the Amazon is too poor soil for a productive grassland.
The deforestation is a question of farming, which bring up the modern practice of mono cropping. Ie destroying the ecosystem present and replacing it with poor root structured annuals.
The biggest issue with the receding of the Amazon is more a habitat distraction issue. The Amazon has the most diverse ecosystem on the planet with the highest concentration of individual species in the world.
@@Leo-vr3bg I call bs on "the Amazon is too poor soil for a productive grassland"
Woolly mammoth before gta 6 is wild
That park has been around for at least 15 yrs. They began stocking it then. There were articles in various scientific magazines at the time. How they were creating this experimental park.
It isn't just mammoths they are planning on cloning. They have the DNA of wooly rhinos cave bear, several big cats, and various smaller animals. I've followed this for years.
There was a lab in Japan that was number 1 in cloning. This lab was also involved with this project.
My only question is what happens when natural animal instinct takes over?
Nothing would happen
I literally remember my science teacher telling us about the cloning of woolly mammoths when I was in 6th grade.. that was 10 years ago!
We're about to make your childhood dreams come true, stay tuned!
We sure are trying to accelerate our eventual extinction.
the entire video is literally about how this will combat it
Bunch of global warming idiots
"like… REAL Important conservation implications"
Meanwhile bees going extinct: *"AM I A F****G JOKE TO YOU??"*
A wise man once said “ your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could they didn’t stop to think if they should”
That's the exact opposite of what happened. We've known we could for well over a decade.
So, Hollywood is your source of wisdom and knowledge, huh?
@@Wonderboywonderings
No usually listen to joe Rogan every day, along with jordan Peterson, louder with crowder, ben Shapiro. Just because you quote form a movie as a joke doesn’t mean you listen to Hollywood you dmf
This is where it starts people 😂😂
Mammoths are back!
Mammoths had their shot. They didn’t make it
At the 2:30 mark when he's explaining in his own way on how the DNA to get the woolly mammoths sounds exactly how the first Jurassic Park movie explained it lol
Chris Pratt actually plays Forrest Galante
2021: Ben Lamm announces that Mammoths will roam the earth again by 2027
2024: Ben Lamm announces that Mammoths will now roam the earth again by 2028
2026: Ben Lamm mysteriously disappears along with the "ton of raised money"
I thought one of the goals is to stop deforestation because we've wiped out so much of it. Perhaps mammoths go slower than machinery, but that's what entered my mind as soon as he started talking about knocking down huge swaths of forest. The whole area evolved into forest- it was grasslands long ago.
He explains that in this clip
Have you seen
Joe Rogan asks Elon Musk HARD Questions about Cobalt Mining for TESLA Batteries 🔋
they wouldn't be knocking them down as they go, literally, and it's not all forest.. .There is no other animal which could do what a few thousand mamoths could...
This is going to be one of those companies that everyone in 10 years realizes was an obvious investment fraud.
Yes, back in 2010, the Asian teams working same goal thought they'd have succeeded by 2015. Millions of years of evolution aren't easily duplicated by arrogant humans who think they're gods.
Was thinking the same thing, who is funding this
“Save the trees”
Nah, we need to clone mammoths to get rid of these trees for the environment…
When the water in you're cup starts to jump. Then you start to contemplate everything in you're life up to that moment.
I really really want to see somebody clone the Tasmanian wolf!
Gotta find a fresh body or really preserved one first, which seems impossible in a humid climate it lives in.
I love how to describe what's going on he literally has to describe Jurassic park.
It's sounds tricky.... cloning it with elephants used to warmer weather? How much Indian Elephant would these mammoths have compared to the "originals"? What impact would that have on them? Also, how long would it take for the mammoths to evolve to the point of knowing to knock down trees, etc? I know it's an experiment, and experiments are also to answer those questions, I guess I'm just very curious
Good questions! I'm also very curious about this
Allegedly and there was a animal planet special on it but they try to state that mastodons in Indian elephants are also the closest relatives. I am an easy about this.
"For carbon emissions"
Oh, ffs
That's the kind of 💩 they have to say today to get permissions, funding, support etc. At least they beat the opponent who might say it increases carbon emissions because mammoths farts.
@@suprlite yea maybe they are forced to say he
say it*
Imagine if they crossed a grizzly with an elk?... And then a mammoth clone?
i know you are probably joking but thats def not possible the two animals being mixed need to be somewhat genetically related. like you can't just mix a dog with a giraffe or something the DNA wouldn't be compatible
@@evenhartwick4422 look into it. I’m just saying… look into it.
@Mr. Fact Checker It's not possible,DNA like everything else has laws that can't be broken

Yes, that is the point of it. There is no other animal that could do that work for us..
Bringing back animals when the world is falling apart seems ridiculous
Everyone gangsta till that company also tries to clone Sabertooth Tigers and Dire Wolves and place them in a island zoo with minimal security...
Imagine a woolly mammoth roaming into cities and just absolute causing havoc
