Have you seen Jurassic Park? In this film, scientists

29、 use DNA kept for tens of millions of years to clone dinosaurs. They find trouble, however, when they realize that the cloned creatures are smarter and more dangerous than expected. Thats nothing more than a fiction.But could we really clone endangered animals? To date, the most successful attempt t

30、o do so was the cloning of a gaur, a rare ox-like animal from southeast Asia. Scientists used a cow to bring the cloned baby gaur, named Noah.

31、羊), the Sumatran tiger, the cheetah (獵豹), and the giant panda.Next, could we really clone extinct animals?In theory? Yes.

32、 which could serve as a surrogate mother.In reality? Probably not. On the one hand, its not likely that extinct animals DNA could survive undamaged for such a long time.
