Maybe our sons and daughters will get to hunt the Woolly Mammoth, the Giant Cave bear, and Saber-tooth Tigers.

Are these animals to be released in AK?

They'll have to be released in warmer climates; otherwise they'll go extinct again grin

Might need a 20mm recoiless rifle. Maybe something larger. I wonder if mammoth would taste like elephant.


Time spent hunting is not deducted from one's lifetime.

The question I have is if they can create these animals from DNA. What next, if they can make a male and female. Then if they can get them to breed. Will they create an inbred offspring with genetic problems. Or will the intended parents be genetically [bleep] from the start and have all kinds of problems. Its too much like playing God or Dr. Frankenstein for me.

Would we be playing God or would we be implementing God's plan? Clearly its one or the other but how is one to know?

Maybe if they mix the genes right we can have a whole herd of them. Say 50,000 to start with, herd would be hunt-able then.
