Alright, my beliefs about reintroducing the Woolly Mammoth may be naive and idealistic, but I'm 18, so it comes with the package.
PROS for Mammoths:
- great for science
- great for zoos and businesses that will keep them
- great for teaching and field trips in school
CONS for Mammoths:
- what will happen to the ecosystem? A sudden introduction could throw off the whole food chain, even if we control their diet
- Mammoths have had no time to evolve or adapt to our lifestyles. The last time they saw humans was back when cave painting was a huge fad
- One has to wonder if playing God here is just an open door to playing God later.
So, that's my opinion. I've never been too keen on science, anyways.
