Great, they are going to invent the worlds first man-eating monkeys. Thanks for that. It made my day. Haven't you watched the news lately? Monkeys already have the taste for flesh.

Great, they are going to invent the worlds first man-eating monkeys. I'm sure they can use them as an alternative option to the death penalty!

I always wanted to go to the zoo and watch mammoths.

Great, now if we could just stop breeding ourselves into extinction then this would make sense. Extinct people can't bring anything back to life.

We need to find these guys, sit them down in front of a TV and force them to watch all the Jurassic Park movies... Maybe they'll get the hint...

They might do it, but is there habitat to put the animals when they bring them back.

Key word.. ENDANGERED not extinct.. there won't be mammoths or dinos or doodoo's for that matter being brought back. =P Just the animals that've been brought to the depths of being severly endangered.

And even without said keyword I imagine it would be rather difficult to implant anything into the womb of an extinct species :-p

Some day we, humanity, will make a massive artificial womb... and try to bring mammoths back to life.
