What does Mammoth taste like?
about the 10th post of this one...
I don't know if I'm so keen on this. Playing with genetics...
Is there any practical use for this, besides satisfying scientific curiosity?

why?
You could come up with an animal far more than half mammoth. The first would be half mammoth, but then mammoth sperm fertilizing the eggs of that half mammoth would lead to a 75% mammoth, then the next generation 87.5% and so on.
Why settle for just 50% mammoth - must some some frozen females with eggs out there too!
I'm for it, because it sounds really cool.
And the reason for doing this would be....???
Sorry ... searched first, didn't find it.
Fred: "Four brontosaurusburgers, please!"
'Cause it's really neat.
Chicken.
I already have a Mammoth trunk, a Lincoln.
I searched by keyword & title, it didn't appear either time.
Ah, well. If a duplicate thread is my biggest worry today, I'm one happy gal :)
Damn, frigid female mammoths too?
