Longying Group has a bad year this year, and everything is not going well.

At the beginning of the year, the group's most important and confidential "Hidden Dragon" scientific research base was broken into by two mysterious people and wreaked havoc, as a result, the entire underground base completely sank, hundreds of important researchers disappeared, and all research materials were damaged and suffered heavy losses.

After that, Ye Quan still did not let go, and found an opportunity to crack down on guò hackers, which caused frequent scandals in the Longying Group, causing high-level turmoil, the stock market falling, and several crises, the situation was very bad.

However, Longying Group is worthy of being one of the world's top 500 multinational enterprises, with a strong background and profound heritage, and has always been in a leading position in the field of biotechnology.

At the end of July, Longying Group announced a huge breakthrough in biological cloning technology, scientists in the real room extracted sperm from the body of a mammoth that died 40,000 years ago, recombined and spliced the DNA fragments, and successfully repaired the DNA loss caused by freezing, and obtained the complete DNA code of the mammoth.

Subsequently, the scientists implanted the chromosome into an artificial nucleus and transplanted it into the enucleated egg cells of the female Asian elephant to create a cloned embryo with mammoth genes, which was then transferred into the womb of the Asian elephant as a surrogate mother.

The mammoth embryo successfully implanted and developed in the womb of a surrogate Asian elephant, and the mother elephant also controlled the rejection caused by the pregnancy through the womb with the help of scientists, and successfully conceived for more than 9 months, and the mother elephant and the mammoth fetus were in good condition.

In another 12 months, a mammoth baby will be born in the actual yàn base of the Dragon Eagle Group, and finally resurrect the extinct mammoth after several generations of reproduction.

At last. The spokesman of the Dragon Eagle Group also emphasized. The Group's biological cloning technology is advanced and mature. Only 5 adult female elephants participated in the real yàn, and they are all in good condition at present, and a large number of female elephants were not used as real yàn carriers in the whole process.

As soon as this news came out, it shocked the world and appeared on the front page of most media, and the mammoth fetus and surrogate mother elephant that were born only a year later also touched the hearts of countless people.

Everyone was looking forward to the birth of this mammoth and wanted to see for themselves this behemoth, which had been extinct for thousands of years.

Of course. There are pros and cons, and the scientific community has mixed opinions about the plan to resurrect the mammoth.

Those in favor believe that this is a bold challenge that will take biotechnology a big step forward. If the mammoth can be successfully resurrected through guò cloning technology, it will be a breakthrough in saving endangered animals.

Some also believe that it is humanity's responsibility to return extinct species to Earth. The vast majority of these animals gradually disappeared in the process of human civilization and domination of the earth, and it was human activities that led to their extinction.

Moreover, the resurrection of animals is expected to restore the damaged ecological environment in some areas.

Opponents argue that from a biological point of view. The resurrection of the mammoth does not have a special significance, since its place in the chain of biological evolution is already clear.

If modern elephant eggs are used. The final cloned animal is supposed to be a hybrid of an elephant and a mammoth, not a pure mammoth.

Moreover, the whole resurrection project is full of difficulties, and it is not necessary to breed embryos with mammoth genes to mean success.

Back in 2009, scientists cloned the Pyrenees ibex.

Native to the Iberian Peninsula, the Pyreneean ibex became extinct in 2000 due to human hunting and competition from domestic animals, and the last living Pyrenean ibex in the world was named "Celia......

Later, scientists used a kind of goat that was related to it as a surrogate mother, injected the nucleus of "Celia" into the egg cells of ordinary goats with DNA removed, and then implanted them into the surrogate mother goat.

Of the 57 female goats that underwent the implantation test, only 7 were conceived, 6 of them were miscarried, and only one ewe persevered to the end, and this cloned Pyreneean ibex had a congenital defect after birth and only survived for less than 10 minutes.

Instead of investing a lot of time and energy to save the "dead", it is better to pay more attention to and protect the "living", if humans cannot give animals a good living environment, the final destination of resurrected animals will not be extinct again?

It has also been suggested that according to Darwin's evolutionary theory of "natural selection, survival of the fittest", species extinction is a natural phenomenon; Artificial interference with the natural elimination of the biological world violates the laws of nature.

In the film "Jurassic Park", the screenwriter has expressed this deep concern about human intervention in the natural process through the description of the catastrophic scene.

Mammoths, also known as mammoths or mammoths, are extremely resistant to the cold and were once one of the largest elephants in the world, with steppe mammoths weighing up to 12 tons. It shares a common ancestor with Asian elephants and African elephants.

The mammoth is tall and strong, and its biggest feature, in addition to its thick black hair, is that its mouth has a pair of curved front teeth, which can grow to about 1.5 meters, far more than its modern relatives.

In the Neolithic period, mammoths were widely distributed in Europe, Asia, and northern parts of North America. It fed on grasses and legumes in summer and shrubs and bark in winter, and was an important hunting object for humans at that time.

The reasons for the extinction of mammoths are complex, ranging from environmental changes and reduced range due to climate change, to difficulties in human hunting and reproduction.

The last mammoths became extinct around 2000 BC, but there is evidence that a small number remained on the island of Wrangel in Siberia until 1700 BC.

Even in the summer of 2011, an engineer from the Rakshasa Kingdom filmed a video of a giant animal suspected to be a mammoth crossing a river in Siberia.

The video was reported by various countries and was thrilled by many people who believed that the mammoth still existed in the world.

But more people are skeptical, after all, there is only a blurry long-range video, which is too convincing in today's computer special effects.

Since mammoths mostly live in cold regions, in the frozen soil and ice of Alaska and Siberia, well-preserved mammoth carcasses have been excavated on more than one occasion.

In 1977, gold miners from the former Soviet Union were mining in Siberia when they inadvertently exhumed the carcass of a small mammoth that was only 6 months old.

In 2012, a unique set of mammoth remains was discovered in a mammoth cemetery in permafrost in the Rakshasa Kingdom, and well-preserved cells were found in the elephant's body, including soft fatty tissue, hair, and bone marrow.

Although most of the nuclei of these tissues are injured by ice crystals and cannot be used effectively, the permafrost and ice environment also delay the degradation of DNA, and with the help of advanced gene and cloning technology, it brings great hope for the resurrection of this behemoth.

Modern science and technology have proven that cross-species mating can produce progeny genetically similar to that of ancestors after several generations, and experiments have been successful in mice and cattle.

However, although Asian elephants and mammoths are genetically very similar, it will be very difficult to guide Asian elephants to give birth to a mammoth with the help of cloning technology, and the whole process will have to overcome countless difficulties.

With the increasing development of gene and cloning technology, scientists in many countries have plans to resurrect mammoths, among which countries such as the Wa Kingdom, the Rakshasa Kingdom and South Korea are the pioneers, and they have long announced that they want to resurrect the mammoths, but they are all thunderous and rainy, and no real progress can be seen.

After entering the new century, Xinhua has made many achievements in biological cloning, but on the whole, it still lags behind some developed countries, and there is no relevant mammoth resurrection plan.

This time, the Dragon Eagle Group quietly dropped a huge bomb, preemptively achieving the feat of resurrecting the mammoth, which really shocked the scientific community and everyone's glasses.

From another aspect, it also shows that Longying Group's solid foundation in biotechnology has not only redeemed its reputation that has been bad for the past six months, but even the stock market has begun to rise. (To be continued......)
