I'm with the 'no...Bring back the dodo! <br /><br />I'm with the 'no' though. Messing with nature isn't a good idea. You can't predict what'll happen. I'm not even for cloning organs. No no no no no. Unfortunately, human bodies go wrong. People need to accept some things aren't meant to be fixed. <br /><br />(apologies: I'm tired, cranky, possibly had too much sugar and caffeine this morning and am now slumping)Nayuleskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08693548526829437580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329782430566577328.post-76506554082955453152009-06-08T10:36:21.280-04:002009-06-08T10:36:21.280-04:00Not a dodo.... tempting thought though.
Cloning...Not a dodo.... tempting thought though. <br /><br /><br />Cloning organs is actually a whole other process. Ideally it would use undifferentiated (stem) cells. But getting those in an ethical manner that doesn't suggest creating a fetus just to kill it is difficult. As is getting the undifferentiated cells in large portions.<br /><br />I'll save that post for another week!The Gerlingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14070409008086977552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329782430566577328.post-51136957043703795582009-06-08T10:04:26.658-04:002009-06-08T10:04:26.658-04:00I've always wondered why cloned animals didn&#...I've always wondered why cloned animals didn't necessarily look identical to the originals--thanks for explaining in plain English!<br /><br />I'm going to say a 'no' to cloning, even extinct species. It doesn't seem like a good idea to just reintroduce a species to a current ecosystem--too much damage possible. Was the extinct species they tried to clone the dodo bird?<br /><br />But (I think) I'm in favor of cloning organs, like hearts, livers etc. for transplant patients. As long as they're reeeeally reeeeally careful with it.Anna Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08774415814789806840noreply@blogger.com
