This project describes the process in which scientists are trying to bring back Woolly Mammoths after years of extinction. How will they do this, you ask? Well, they'll need an Asian Elephant as the baseline because their DNA is very similar. They'll also need Mammoth DNA, found in the ice caps, and money. A lot of money. This is where this pamphlet comes in!

DNA is the building block for life and all living things. Essentially what DNA does is tell amino acids to attach to each other to make proteins and form the perfect shape. DNA has a chemical sequence of 4 bases that consists of Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Thymine. These bases connect to their corresponding bases to form the helix. Then they split and more bases connect to the split helix, forming a second strand of DNA. There are amino acids outside of the nucleus in the cytoplasm and in order for DNA to convert the amino acids into proteins, chemicals in the nucleus make partial copies of the DNA code, called RNA. The RNA leaves the nucleus and goes to a ribosome. Then the ribosome reads the RNA code 3 letters at a time, sucking amino acids out of the cytoplasm and building proteins. The proteins stick to each other to make the perfect shape and then go on to make cells.

Genes are the blueprint for our bodies. Genes make proteins in the body that determine physical traits like hair color, eye color or skin color. Genes are inherited when a copy is inherited from the mother and the other from the father. There are dominant and recessive genes where one gene overpowers the other. Each gene's code uses the four bases that DNA has. The sequence of the bases tells the genes how the amino acids should form the proteins to make our cells.

The simple answer is that Asian Elephant DNA is the most similar to that of Mammoths. Essentially some genes are so similar that if you take one gene from one organism and put it in another, that organism would read the gene and start producing the same protein. That’s how scientists can potentially bring Mammoths back. Once the DNA from the two species is combined, the embryo will be inserted in a mother Asian Elephant for a new baby mammoth to grow and hopefully become an adult.

The Mammoths will be put in the Arctic for them to be able to thrive. This will also bring benefits to the tundra. Mammoths could convert the tundra back to grasslands. They generate a nutrient cycle that allows grasses to reign over the tundra flora. Arctic grasslands support higher biodiversity and abundance. The grazing, compaction, and disturbance effects of Mammoths can enable the deeper freezing of the permafrost during the winter months. Mammoth blood can also help reveal information about mammalian blood that could treat human diseases and help with space exploration. However the mutations that create Mammoth hemoglobin need to be brought back to life for this to happen. The Revival of them could also help treat the herpes variant among the Asian Elephants and stop the Ivory tusk market.

The next steps could be anything if this project succeeds. I mean, imagine how amazing it would be to ride a mammoth after thousands of years. Even just seeing one after so long must be a glorious sight. Humans would be able to advance in space travel. Maybe even get to Pluto one day!!
