    WOW, look at how perfectly preserved that Mammoth calf is! I'm positive unlike dinos that there is plenty of Mammoth DNA to work with as far as cloning goes.

    to me its so sad that museums have an enormous collection of beautiful and historic things and we (the visitors) only see a small fraction of it and even things that are visible in all other museums as well. i've seen things in documentaries that have never been shown to the public. then my question is why?

    Saw program about fossils of two mammoths found, tusks entwined... was conjectured something bellicose the cause; was actually a double suicide of two friends, very despondent over conditions involving so many violent, dangerous animals... Sad...
