Mammoths can be revived

The ability of successful mammoth cloning to increase greatly after scientists found the mammoth bone marrow well preserved in Siberia in Russia.

Japan's Kyodo news agency said scientists of the Mammoth Museum of the Sakha republic of the Russian Federation and Japan's Kinki University discovered a mammoth thigh bone in the closed ground. permafrost in Siberia in August. The marrow inside the bone is preserved intact.

Mammoth is an ancient extinct elephant genus about 10,000 years ago. Their feathers are long (up to 50cm) and thicker than modern elephants. Ivory of long mammoth mammoths. Their legs only have 4 fingers, while the legs of modern elephants have 5 fingers. Because the mammoth hindquarters are short, the center of the body is tilted back, and their shoulders are raised.

Mammoth Museum at Sakha and Kinki University will jointly conduct a study to duplicate mammoth clones. If replacing nuclei in modern elephant's egg cells by multiplying in mammoth bone marrow cells, experts can create fetuses with mammoth DNA. Then they will place the fetus into the womb of a female elephant and wait until the day it gives birth. The uterus of modern elephants accept the mammoth fetus because they are two closely related species.

Cloning is a simple method of reproductive reproduction without fertilization. With cloning methods, many individuals can be created from one cell.

A gene intact in the nucleus of a cell is a very important factor for implantation techniques in a cloning method. For scientists who want to replicate mammoths, finding a nucleus containing the mammoth's intact gene is a major challenge from the late 1990s to the present. The reason is that the mammoth is extinct for so long.

But the fact that scientists discovered mammoth thigh bones in August made the possibility of success in the mammoth replication efforts greatly increased.

Global warming causes ice in the permafrost of eastern Russia to melt. Thanks to that, the scientific community discovered some mammoth corpses frozen in that area over the past few years.
