The progression of science is synonymous with the progression of the human race. Evolution can no longer effectively occur with society (an erratic construct) dictating who we should mate with. I don't want to see my species stuck in a dead end until we can deplete the Earth of its resources and thus destroy ourselves. Mammoths had their time, and nature selected them for extinction >_> | ||

Even that will all be fine if you do basic things like avoiding single points of failure in your security system, doing background checks on those with access to sensitive or valuable assets or systems, and not taunting the single point of failure in your security system about his massive debt and need for money. | ||

What would it matter if one escaped, without human aid it would have no ability to survive outside of its natural habitat, which no longer exists. Not to mention, it's a fucking mammoth. They're not exactly hard to spot. No. Cloned animals are usually capable of reproduction. It's hybrids you are thinking of - many of them are sterile, and of those that are not the second generation often is. Depending on where a species is released, it may or may not be able to cope with a new environment in the wild. Examples include wallabies in England, the cane toads in Australia, and Africanized bees in South America. Edit: On March 16 2012 09:52 Derez wrote: Luckily mammoths will never be able to open doors.

I just wonder if they will be able to live and stick around in today's world. Usually, there is a reason a species got extinct... + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://www.foundshit.com/images/mammoth-chunks-travel-mart.jpg)  | ||
