They used "non-living genetic material" preserved from the gastric-brooding frog to do this. Hmmm. Wow. Scientists from the University of New South Wales are reporting that they have just successfully created a living embryo of an animal which has been extinct for three decades -- a breakthrough which could eventually be used to revive other species previously wiped from existence. http://www.treehu...ecies.html Gastric-brooding frog: http://en.wikiped...oding_frog |
