Earth threatened by mammoths

Quite often the media flashes information that Russian or foreign scientists are going to clone a mammoth. Like, it will be very short time, and these huge, overgrown with thick fur of monsters can be found somewhere in the Siberian taiga or on the Canadian plains.

Actually, there is no Fiction in this. Yes, the mammoth can be cloned. Another thing - is it necessary?

A number of researchers believe that mammoth cloning is not only meaningless, but also harmful. The fact is that for those thousands of years that have passed since the death of the last representative of this species of animals, the Earth's flora has changed significantly - the mammoths simply will not have anything to eat. But even if they are accustomed to our grass, it is unlikely that they will suffer numerous infections, which in those days were never heard of. Plus, cloning of mammoths will lead to a disruption of the already fragile wildlife. So, if you clone this prehistoric animal, then very small quantities, solely for study or for zoos.
