It's amazing that people are still wasting resources on this kinda stuff while the planet burns.
To be fair, I think research on mammoth cloning started a good while ago and, if scientific research is anything like a start-up (spitballing here, I have no clue), doing a massive reorientation mid-process ends up costing more in the long term. At this point, it'd be easier to just finish figuring stuff out with mammoths then adjusting and applying the process on other entities/purposes.
Still MFW we're cloning woolly mammoths on a boiling planet. Lol. Lmao, even.
