Wooly Bully ...Mammoth?

 Scientists at Harvard and M.I.T. are in the process of resurrecting a 'wooly mammoth'. You know that big dang elephant guy that wandered our world during the "Ice Age" and is now famous for being a cartoon character in those silly darn 'Ice Age' cartoon movies. Ray what's-his-name and Queen Lafeeyah or whatever, have jobs for a guaranteed almost life time as voice actors. The things the fabulously famous do for the big money. Anyway and back to the science details. The research kids doing science at Harvard and M.I.T. are "almost there in their pursuit of bringing back the mammoths." The whiz kids have formed a company headquartered in Texas, (you had to know that Texas would be in this curiously screwy mix) name of "Colossal Biosciences" and doesn't that just sound almost science like. Not really. The entire purpose and efforts behind bringing mammoths back to our horribly under duress world would be the profitability factor contingent on zoos being able to house 'wooly mammoths' and generate profits in excess of any zoos wildest dreams of avarice. After all, money and profitability specifically, are what drives American ingenuity (?) and achievements in science. Can you imagine the fascination our worlds' children will have with the chance of being able to see a real live piece of paleo-prehistoric fauna right down the street at the local zoo? Look out Disney, you are about to be replaced by "mammoths." Tinkerbell will shit bricks at the thought of losing her (?) position in a Disney hierarchy. Disney Corp will declare war on Colossal Biosciences for damn certain and just watch how fast Ron DeSantis makes nice with the Disney bane of DeSantis' existence. In the what goes unmentioned here department, the whiz kids and the pseudo-intellectual money guys have obviously never watched any of the 'Jurassic Park Lost World' movies. So this is almost like life imitating art. What could possibly go wrong ...

Now for Thursday machine art and happily not any wooly mammoths were harmed in the generation of this screed.

wooly mammoths are extinct and have been for a very long time. I really don't think science kids and geneticists should be fucking around with what's already passed. I hate to think what a resurrected mammoth will make of our sorely messed up Planet. 😐
