People were injecting wooly mammoth DNA into elephant embryos in the days of Noah?

But if they went extinct because they were delicious...

I was thinking the same thing. Wooly Mammoth meat soon to appear at Costco and Sams Club.

Wow, an Asian elephant walking around with ear muffs on.

“Researchers from Harvard University have successfully inserted genes from a woolly mammoth into living cells from an Asian elephant”

What, they took a gene from Rosy O’Donnel and inserted it into cells of Colonel Dr. Margarether Cammermeyer, http://lesbianlife.about.com/od/artistswriterset1/p/Cammermeyer.htm

Don’t know where you could put them, the Mammoth Steppe/Steppe Tundra terrain that they used to graze no longer exists.

I see no record of that anywhere. However “Matthew 24:37, “But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.”” refers to the suddenness of events and the people totally unprepared even though ample warning was given.

Too late. They voted Democrat.

This would explain Helen Thomas and Rose O’Donnell.

I wonder what genes they used to create Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Chucky Schumer - Devil Fish genes?

There’s plenty of grub around for a few wooly mammoths!

Don’t know about the wooly mammoths but they were playing with bunch of genetic manipulation. I get the sarcasm but with a bit of open mind check out the Book of Enoch and also L. A. Marzuli has quite interesting things to say on the subject.
