My only question is; are mammoth delicious, and would they be an efficient food animal to raise?

I'm leaning on the side of "probably not" mainly because elephants seem to be neither especially tasty nor efficient AFAIK. I know people eat them, but in places where they are raised and trained they tend to be used as beasts of burden rather than as food.

But what the fuck do I know, maybe mammoths died out originally because they were way too damn tasty to live, and the Neanderthals saw our skinny Homo Sapien asses and were all like, "Fuck that, we may be about to die out but these assholes ain't gonna get our mammoth meat!"

And then it was the biggest barbecue of all time.

People sure seemed to like them, 20,000 years ago. That is, if the bones are evidence.

1)  :lulz:

2) If we're going to be fucking with their DNA any, why don't we genetically engineer them to be both tasty and efficient? That's how genetics works, right?

3) I would totally be a Mammoth Cowboy. That would be the third most exciting job ever, right behind football-playing king in space, and Batman.

Seriously. What the hell use is science if it isn't good to eat?

Indeed, that is exactly how genetics works. But only if you use quantum.

Thinking about that, since it's the Japanese that will be cloning the beast, how many trunks do you think they will give it? It's gotta open up entire new worlds of possibility in live-action tentacle porn ...

I keep thinking of woolly mammoth porn, and I just can't get the title Sexame Street 32: Snuffleupanass out of my head.
