I've always thought of doing this for the meat.

You know, try an extinct ancient species and all.

I'm sure it's fit for human consumption; after all...

What happened in japan? the first human genome sequenced?

cause that was craig venter. He HAS actually sequences Watson's DNA, but Watson has not released it to the public. Venter has also sequenced his own DNA, also not available to the public.

i dont get why people keep doing this we god nao shit

its not different to cloning any live animal, cloning a live animal is barely different to artificial insemination, which is barely a step to the side from plain fucking sex.

An extinct species has never been brought back to life before. This is a qualitative step forward. If we nitpick every step and point out the obvious fact that science is gradual then we will go from the paleolithic stone tools to engineering star systems without a single moment to celebrate.
