The new lab in Yakutsk - often called the world's coldest city - will "seek out live cells with a view to cloning", says Semen Grigoryev, director of the Mammoth Museum at the city's Northeastern Federal University. He tells Ogonek magazinethat "the priority is to look into bringing back the mammoth", adding that the Beijing Institute of Genomics and South Korea's Sooam Biotech company, which has pioneered dog cloning, will be involved in the study.

Larson and Watterson were my surrogate fathers, so there's always room for either.

I wonder how it's pronounced.

Short e, not a long e. "Seh-men." Not an uncommon Russian name.

 

 

 

 

And Putin's only cloning mammoths so he has one more big game animal to hunt.
