There is an important part of DNA cloning you didn't mention and which was not known by the researchers who cloned the first sheep: Methylation. The methylation pattern is incredibly important in having viable clones. That is something not carried over in a standard PCR reaction unfortunately. This means that while the DNA in those zoos may be helpful in recreating life; they may or may not contain the useful information we need to properly clone a viable species. Still, I have hope for the future. We will eventually figure it all out. Biology is still a relatively young field of science. :)

Helius Infinitus -- Agreed: The Epigenetic role, where methyl tags squeeze or release genes to modulate expression based on environmental influence certainly has a role. BUT, Mr. SocietyofGeeks didn't really delve in to making this a medical explanation. I loved it. To discuss epigenetics for you and others... I'll post a reply here and above: Due to the caste system in India, populations anyone who seems they could be Vysya, are asked as a matter of routine, by anesthesiologists. The standard drugs would kill them. Boys who had experienced a “feast” immediately pre-puberty, when their sperm cells are maturing ... died on average six years earlier than the grandsons of Överkalix boys who had been exposed to a famine season during the same pre-puberty window, and often of diabetes. When a statistical model controlled for socioeconomic factors, the difference in lifespan became 32 years, all dependent simply on whether a boy’s grandfather had experienced one single season of starvation or gluttony just before puberty. It appeared that Överkalix grandfathers were somehow passing down brief but important childhood experiences to their grandsons. Bygren knew such a suggestion would be heretical. Though I focused on the male reproductive system, the female reproductive system is subject to insult as well ... women whom, as a fetus were subjected to hypo caloric states, had an impact on THEIR children, generations removed Lars Bygren, a Swedish health researcher from Överkalix -- had access to a WEALTH of data, the interest of having chosen the field, and the ability to trace his ancestors, in detail -- back to 1475. What researcher armed with such records could resist!? (The SHIT poor Kepler put up with from Tycho Brahe -- to get his research. But look at all the laws Kepler provided for us!!? ) They kept records of birth, death, and agricultural yields for perhaps 1000 years. He drilled down on the data. Simply put: Group A: Effect on the male reproductive system of adequate calories immediately preceding puberty. DIED 3 years below the groups mean; 6 years earlier than those calorie restricted, of heart disease. Group B: Effect on the male reproductive system of caloric deficit immediately preceding puberty. Lived 3 years longer than the avg.; 6 years longer the well fed group; but instead died of diabetes. Another study: 5,451 smokers with 166 pre-pubescent smokers. Those who smoked PREpubescently -- had children who're fatter, even when compared to, EVEN when compared to children of men who habitually smoked. They started smoking AFTER puberty. MALE GROUP (A) ENVIRONMENTAL STIMULI (B) (B)(C)Distinction... (B): IMMEDIATELY [PRE] PUBERTY (C) ENGAGED IN (B) POST PUBESCENT (D) GENERATION EFFECTED. (E) CORRELATION (IDK the mechanistic cause) 1.

(E) OBESITY 4. (A) SMOKERS (B)NO (C)YES (D)CHILDREN. (E) NORMAL Though it flew in the face of contemporaneous dogma, that, "the experiences DIED with the individual," when you have a claim based on large numbers ... intellectual honesty that: - Falsifiable / testable - Parsimonious - Has a narrow error margin... THE JIG IS UP. Orthodoxy must yield; for science is an integrated field. Over time, more things will corroborate that which is true. Others will only make SENSE in the context more comprehensive findings... Including retrodictions. The fact that the timing was essentially the same but different in women further corroborates the epigenetic model; hypo caloric states vs. normal intake during GESTATION, when the eggs are made, had the same sorts of effects as did calorie restriction did to men. Like all things medical, as long as this is, it barely scratches the surface. I apologize for errors I made. Obviously I copied data, but I tried to word this in a way that was easiest to get.

Meanwhile two vastly more evolutionary important species, Sumatran and Javan rhinos, are both on the brink of extinction themselves. Food for thought.

Actually, de-extinction is impossible due to the simple fact that the genetics will be far too different.

This is exactly what they're trying to do, de-extinction isn't literally making the same mammoth species from thousands of years ago. It's about making a sort of hybrid animal of some kind to look similar to the prehistoric mammoth using selective breeding and filling in the same niche that was once fulfilled by a mammoth. That's how the new Quagga was made. It wasn't an actual Quagga, but an animal that went through selective breeding to look similar.

All of these are no guarantees for us to learn what their behaviors are.

@@deinsilverdrac8695 I think you're perceiving the picture in a unilaterally negative way brother. What's your basal criteria to declare the cheetah project a failure? As clarified by a South African expert, 50% mortality is not abnormal, such instances have happened with cheetah reintro in African reserves as well. Has it officially been recognised as failure yet? There have been some natural deaths & early age cub deaths which're being conveniently counted into the total death toll to exaggerate it (so far total 9 deaths out of 24 I suppose). Lets not have an unfair approach! Its too early to be declared as anything as of yet! What shouldn't be overlooked is, India is a natural cheetah habitat & is a historic range of that animal. Reintroduction will not only enhance the native Indian biodiversity, but also elevate the importance of habitually ignored grassland ecosystem. I agree that lions should be shifted to more than one park. Now this idea has more support than it previously had & should be acted upon expeditiously. Rhino reintro has met with resounding success outside Kaziranga in Assam, & they're being reintroduced to UP & Bihar as well. Vulturs, Gharials are recovering. Tiger population is up by 40%. Steady rise in lions noted in Gir. Indian leopard count has jumped up by 63% in four years, number of Elephants, Hog Deers, Swamp Deers, Indian Dolphins have increased in many pockets (as skipped by you). We already have feral horses in Assam. If numbers rise up in their native habitat, we can attempt to bring back Asiatic Cheetah subspecies, Javan & Sumatran rhinos too. We can get Green Peacocks on broad scale as well. What's wrong in reintroducing lost species? For Ostrich, Arabian Ostrich would have been a marvelous choice for India, unfortunately that's extinct so maybe we can get "the closet African species to Arabic Ostrich" for reintroduction in India. That's a truly "wild" but achievable dream. For a pure exotic species like giraffe, Tapir maybe a safari is a better idea in India than its introduction. And for Zebu, let's not intermix revival & reintroduction. Isn't the case of Zebu is of revival and not reintroduction? I'm not going to go one way like you, there have been some negative reports on animal population as well like number of Dholes, Wild Boars, Monkeys have dropped. And I wholeheartedly agree that they need more attention. What is completely ridiculous is to associate declining population (if any) of any other animals with the cheetah reintroduction. Both these things should be seen in their own right first. Declining tigers for instance, need better vigilance in the jungles & habitat conservation, it doesn't need abolition of cheetah reintro. How can a grassland beast (cheetah) compensate for forest beast (tiger) anyways. I agree that the project could have been handled with more diligence & expertise, and could possibly be a failure (or a success otherwise) but this NEVER EVER means the idea of bringing cheetah back in India is wrong. We should get them back again with more care & field wisdom. There have been consistent attempts by vested politicians & leftist media to tarnish & demoralised cheetah reintro efforts just becoz it's success will benefit to the image of present right wing govt. Unfortunately such tendencies shadow the actual ground reality for the supporters & the opponents alike. No doubt there have been lacunae & shortcomings but the idea of Cheetah back is great & should be fulfilled for this great nation! PS: There's massive & popular support for Cheetah reintroduction in India. Cheetah is a Sanskrit name, can there be a greater bond between India & Cheetah than this one.

@mayrahemmerechts58674 ай бұрын
If they were the same species then why was the quagga more docile and less afraid of humans? Zebras are known to fear humans, they are very panicky and aggressive but the quagga in captivity didn’t mind interacting with humans and even pulled carts or chariots in zoos (if I’m not mistaken the last specimen in the Dutch zoo was known to be used for that) also how close are they related to the African wild ass? That one could be the key for the darker backside

As a 'sub-species' one should consider the following: Genetics has proven that animal 'domestication efforts' often result in the genes of fight-or-flight being connected to the genes of appearance. Given that the Kwagga is basically a Zebra with a change in appearance, one can well extrapolate that the Kwagga may well have been the product of an ongoing domestication effort by Africans. Simply put they were breeding more 'tame' Zebras to use as, say, mules. In the process of breeding the Zebras they may have created the sub-species of the Kwagga. They may well have abandoned they whole effort and left a more 'docile' and 'tame' species to roam free. This species would then be volatile to extinction.

Thats still horrible and cruel. Don't hunt for sport or pleasure thats just Bad and immoral. Hunting is not a right, nor a passion, it's a duty.

All they are selectively breeding for is a zebra with quagga-like color pattern. Most likely real quaggas had a different niche from other zebras and adaptations to win from the competition in that niche. Otherwise the quagga was not a separate (sub-)species at all, but just a curious breed of zebra. Either quagga was never a seperate subspecies, or it can't be de-extincted.

@@mistersir3020 1 when i say they have the same dna thats an simplification, look at human we all have the same dna with only few gene that change between population. Yet the phenotype change quite a lot in facial structure, skin color etc. But thats only just surface difference, just like how dog Can look like different genus and still be in the same subspecie. Quagga ARE just a population of plain Zebra, the only noticeable difference they had was their coat which was more primitive than other plain zebra thats like the only difference and it's super superficial. Probably only a few gene at most. Also even clone Can look different, with the same dna, because a gene can express itself in different way. 2 nope, all equid have very similar niche, genetic and behabiour. Like VERY similar, they're all in the same Genus Afterall, the main difference would be vocalisation, herd structure and size and anti-predator response (donkey are more agressive than horses). All of that is quite superficial difference, and when we talk about ecological niche they're all the same, they eat the same plants the same way live in the same habitats and live in herds which size can vary. 3 the only difference between Zebra species is things like slight variation in average herd size, stripes variation and shapes, and very minute detail like that. 4 we have a lot of description and tales from farmers, Quagga came from the sound they make. (Which Can be just the same as other zebra since their vocalisation tend to sound like a quagga quagga). And they lived in huge herds like most other zebras. Herd which probably had a fission fusion things Through the season and migration and were leaded by old mares but protected ans dominated by a stallion. Like other horses, donkey and zebra.
