MAMOUTH COME BACK TO WORLD

Manfred is a mammoth or Manny who became a character in the cartoon movie 'Ice Age'. A scientist from Japan intends to turn the 'Manny' in the real world, in four or five years with cloning technology.
Cloning efforts ever undertaken in the 1990s by restoring the cell nucleus from the skin and muscle frozen mammoths found in Siberia. However, this attempt failed because the cells have been too damaged by extreme cold.
In 2008, a technique developed by Teruhiko Wakayama of the Center for Development Biology, Riken, successfully cloned a mouse from other mouse cells that have been frozen for 16 years.
This brings good news to experts who want to revive the extinct animals that are extinct 5000 years ago. "Now the technical problem is resolved. All we need now is a soft tissue sample from a frozen mammoth," said a professor from Kyoto University, Akira Iritani, as quoted by The Telegraph.
Iritani Wakayama intends to use the technique to identify the cell nucleus mammoths, the ancestor of the elephant. This core will then be incorporated into the African elephant egg cell, which will act as a substitute mother (surrogate mother) for the giant mammoths.
Iritani estimate it took about two years before the mother could substitute 'infiltrated' mammoth cell. After that followed 600 days of pregnancy.
He also has announced his trip to Siberia to find the frozen mammoths and then restore the skin or soft tissue samples. He takes samples at 3 inches square. If this search fails, Iritani scientists intend to ask the Russians to provide samples of their findings.
He acknowledged the current success rate of cloning cattle business is still small, about 30 percent. "I think we will be successful and a healthy mammoth will be born within four or five years," said Itirani optimistic.
