if we got a DNA sample out of the bone marrow, and using that DNA, we clone the dodo?would this work...

 

can this bring the extinct dodo birds back out of extinction

I am not sure about the dodo, but a previous answer had the mammoth comment at least partially right. DNA decays & breaks down just like the rest of a body after death, so any sample pulled from a dodo (like a stuffed one in a museum) would be pretty busted up. That being said, animals with close living relatives (like the mammoth or the North American lion, or many other large Pleistocene mammals) do have a possibility of resurrection.

Some scientists r trying to splice (combine) mammoth DNA with African elephant DNA & implant the ''clone'' into a captive elephant. These two species r similar enough that an elephant female could theoretically give birth to a mammoth.

Even if this works, it will unfortunately not bring these species truly out of extinction - their habitats r gone, & we can barely keep alive what species r left. It would most likely be a tourist attraction or a scientific study. Besides, animals learn a lot from their parents, & without parents of the same species, the ''new'' dodos or mammoths would never be what the once were.

sounds like Jurassic park if you ask me

 

can this bring the extinct dodo birds back out of extinction

a few months ago somehow they recreated a living mammoth, so i guess its posible

If that worked nothing would be extinct, now would it?
