Ah yes, the Tiger scenario... they`ve had the embryo preserved in alchohol for 10 years or more. They hope to re-establish the species by the end of the decade, but I don`t think that will be possible. They have one preserved speciman and ONLY one preserved speciman as far as i`m aware. The scientists would have to create atleast one male and two female specimans for this project to work; if they only have one, and no partner, it would be impossible to revive unique identities... with only one partnership, they would cause inbreeding and thus, defects. If we have enough money for what is obviously a doomed project, I don`t see why little Jonni doesn`t have us helping 3rd World countries through the heavy taxes we already pay for these things. Oh, wait- every cent of tax we pay according to government policies has to either go to a doomed project, or cabinet salary.
