Liquid blood and urine have been found inside a prehistoric 42,000-year-old foal

Russian researchers have found liquid blood and urine inside the frozen carcass of a foal that died 42,000 years ago in Siberia's Verkhoyansk region.
The animal's body fluids were extracted during an autopsy and tested in the hope of cloning the extinct species, according to Semyon Grigoriev, director of the Mammoth Museum at Northeastern Federal University (NEFU) in Yakutsk.
Mammoth tusk hunters discovered the ancient foal embedded in the permafrost of the massive Batagaika crater during the summer of 2018, on a day when the temperature had plummeted to -67.8 degrees Celsius (-90 degrees Fahrenheit).

Once they clone a few, I’m going to buy a pony for my daughter. Not a regular horse like you poors have. My little Ainsleeigh will thank me.

Unlike most of the crap the media runs with, cloning this actually has an outside shot at succeeding. Very cool.

Unfortunately it’s an Asian holding the vial. It’ll be sold as an aphrodisiac or something.

Just a matter of time before they start cloning extinct species and bringing them back. Willing to bet that if I time travelled to the future they'll have dinosaurs and wooly mammoths and sabertooth tigers and all sorts of shite cloned and in zoos

I hesitate to say that something is impossible, but this is almost certainly impossible. The problem isn't with our cloning tech; the problem is that DNA is organic and degrades. Based on what we know about DNA degradation, we might be able to fully sequence something a few million years old. 65 million plus? Not happening. It's like trying to determine the blueprint of an ancient building based on a pile of ash.

A Russian Asian that works for one of the bigger Russian federal universities. So no.

I’ll box her with the 2, 3, and 7 for the exacta, and get the same results I get with all horses.
