Ep. 150 Tips For Building Your Own Mammoth Park

We have all seen Jurassic Park, and despite the obvious flaws and clear security risks, I think we all want to see real dinosaurs.  This will probably never happen BUT what if we could bring something back that was a bit smaller, cuddlier, and way more possible?  In this episode, the Brain Trust contemplates opening up a park occupied by woolly mammoths.  There may be a scientific path to this, given that there is a real mummified mammoth in Siberia.  It is much easier to extract DNA from something preserved rather than taking your chances on amber encrusted with mosquitoes.  Plus we talk about other possible park residents, including the dodo, the black rhinoceros, and the thylacine.
