    Woolly Mammoth that is. An Australian company has recreated the flesh from the long lost species to demonstrate the technological possibilities.

    Meatball from long-extinct mammoth created by food firm


    Of course, I can't help but think that once again, Futurama beat them to it! :D

    This, too, was a delicacy among fewer of our ancestors.

    I see why they call it mammoth.

    It’s huge.

    Makes me wonder if the intent is to render the animal farm extinct. Seems to me we are queuing up to slaughter all of the animals that provide sustenance for the population. I mean we can't let creatures populate like rabbits can we?

    Tell Noah there isn't a need for two by two. Come to think of it the only necessity for moving off the planet would be an environment rich in oxygen and water.

    The large-scale production of meat, particularly beef, causes huge damage to the environment, with many studies finding there must be a big reduction in meat-eating in rich nations in order to end the climate crisis.
