Mammoths to walk the earth again! Then......? - jkaler48 - 08-03-2013
Mammoths! Well that sounds like fun! Then what next recreating Neanderthals? Bad Idea;
What if they are smarter than us? What if they are conservatives? What if they become Democrats?: Neanderthal lawyer (they all have law and medical degrees by age 12): "We demand reparations for Genocide against our people!" Government;
"What do you want?" Neanderthal: "Europe, the Middle east and part of Asia. My colleague here representing the Denisovans wants the rest of Asia including Southwest Asia." Government: "But most people in Europe are 4% Neanderthal!"
Neanderthal lawyer; "OK you can keep 4%"

Most people of European Descent have notable amounts of Neanderthal DNA, some even express Neanderthal Features.
It has already been considered actually, to clone a neanderthal. Some women have even volunteered to carry the Neanderthal Child if it is done. However, most of them will probably die in initial cloning attempts. Furthermore it raises many moral issues, although a Neanderthal should be able to function perfectly normally in society.

Velociraptors, of course. They'd make great shock infantry, and wonderful seekers in the forest/jungle. Turn them loose, and you don't have to worry about who's hiding in there. Body armor, of course, Kevlar--no, I've got it: Dragon Scale! Yep!

Velociraptor? Why not Philosiraptor?

The reason they can clone mammoths/neanderthals is because Bone only yields a certain amount of DNA. The rest has to come from blood or tissue, which has been found thanks to frozen dead people/mammoths in places like Russia and the Alps. There are no frozen Dinosaurs because Antarctica was on the equator when the Tunguska Event occurred.

Derp. Yes thank you. I knew it had a K and a T in it.
