Russia just took making the theme of Jurassic Park a reality to the next level: scientists are now aggressively pursuing the cloning of pre-historic animals. Included in the mix of prehistoric clones is a woolly mammoth.
The scientists believe that the animals that were frozen in the Siberian permafrost gives them a competitive edge over other nations working on cloning projects. They feel their samples have a possibility of providing excellent undamaged DNA samples so they can resurrect ancient species.
From RT News:
The new laboratory at the Mammoth Museum of the Institute of Applied Ecology at the North-Eastern Federal University in Yakutsk has begun searching through its vast library of samples that were found nearly perfectly preserved in the extreme cold conditions of the Arctic, according to Ogonek magazine.
Scientists hope to extract live DNA by carefully scanning through more than 2,000 rare exhibits contained in the lab, which is especially equipped to preserve tissue samples in freezers of -87 degrees Celsius. The new lab will also be used to swiftly analyze any newly found samples, without the risk of damaging them while transferring them to a distant laboratory.
