Great. Now instead of worrying about the anacondas moving up from Florida and dropping on us—and the killer bees attacking us from the attic—we can start worrying about resurrected T. Rexes (T. Reges? T. Regis? I knew I shouldn’t doze through Latin class) breaking through the door.

Let’s look on the bright side: We can stop worrying about the snail darters and spotted owls—and can even kill a rattlesnake if it crawls into one of the children’s beds. The endangered species list will be nothing more than a set of DNA samples.

The bible speaks of strange creatures in the end times. I use to see these as symbolic of todays technology....but honestly with the dna/gene stuff going on today might be rogue labs and science could be doing all sorts of things we might one day see. Could be a stretch saying so but not impossible as I see it.

I could see a future episode of Japanese Iron Chef where the Chairman Kaga introduces the theme ingredient....mammoth.

There is no point in doing this. It is a bad idea, just like those three movies, lol.

Species are gone for good reasons, including ones that are no longer around due to “human influence.” We are part of this natural world too.

Where are all the libs on this one? Aren’t they always arguing that mother nature is the master and has all the answers and we should never interfere? Hmmm

Shown: Primelephas gomphotheroides became extinct 23 million years ago, not Wooley Mammoths which became extinct 11,000 years ago and is the species under concideration

A little correction for you. Shown: Mumakil, the fictional elephant-like creatures described by J.R.R. Tolkein decades before primelephas were presented in scientific literature.

Symbolic? The Bible is the Holy Word of God and is the Truth. There is no symbolism in the Bible. I see far too much denial of Biblical truths at FR. That is blasphemy.

Mastodons apparently had a specialized diet eating Cedar.

For a moment, I read that as mastodons ate cheddar.
