QUOTE
The Pyrenean ibex, a form of wild mountain goat, was officially declared extinct in 2000 when the last-known animal of its kind was found dead in northern Spain.

Shortly before its death, scientists preserved skin samples of the goat, a subspecies of the Spanish ibex that live in mountain ranges across the country, in liquid nitrogen.

Using DNA taken from these skin samples, the scientists were able to replace the genetic material in eggs from domestic goats, to clone a female Pyrenean ibex, or bucardo as they are known. It is the first time an extinct animal has been cloned.

Sadly, the newborn ibex kid died shortly after birth due to physical defects in its lungs. Other cloned animals, including sheep, have been born with similar lung defects.

But the breakthrough has raised hopes that it will be possible to save endangered and newly extinct species by resurrecting them from frozen tissue.

It has also increased the possibility that it will one day be possible to reproduce long-dead species such as woolly mammoths and even dinosaurs.

Because the flood was about disobedience, not sin. And the flood didn't bring seasons, creation brought seasons.

They disobeyed and sinned!
And when God made the earth which I believe to be 6 thousand years ago there were no seasons. Its was the same temperature consistently and it didn't rain. Water came up from the ground and hydrated plants.
And I know the bible.

Not six thousand. 4.4 billion.

Water didn't just appear, that defies every aspect of science, from crap it actually involves to zoology. Have you ever heard of the law of conservation of matter? Water formed when Hydrogen and Carbon Dioxide atoms bonded together to form water and carbon.

There were no plants 4.4 billion years ago.

Creationists are people who believe in the theory that "God" created the earth in seven days, and evolutionists are people who believe in ideas proven by science.
