Apparently, scientists want to start a Jurassic Park using a frozen wooly mammoth. :-s


What will come next, eh?

Yeah that's interesting, but as it says it'll never be 100% mammoth.

That doesn't seem to bother the scientists. :D I suppose anything part-wooly mammoth is good enough for them.

Since this is a forum for Jurassic Park fans...

What's your fave movie? 1, 2, or 3? I think mine is the second one. I can't wait for the fourth film! It's gonna have Keira Knightley!!! \:D/

I've actually only seen the first two. I think #1 was better, just becuase the "dinosaur in the city" thing in #2 was too unrealistic. Of course, the whole plot is unrealistic; but still, it went too far for believability.

I've been aware of this for several years, at least as the resurrection goes. I don't like the idea, as it's kinda 'playing God', so to speak.

Agreed, Jonathan. In fact, the whole genetic engineering industry, while having some worthwhile aspects to it, is like delving too deep into the "building blocks of life." It kinda is playing God. It's extremely easy for that industry to slide into unethicalness.
