Cloning Extinct Animals

I read on Yahoo News that they're trying to bring the Thylacine back to life.


I also heard that they are trying to bring back the Pyrenean Ibex...


and the Huia.


I really hope they do bring them back. The first step was they put Thylacine DNA in a mouse. It will take many years. Who knows what will happen?

Should they try to bring back the dinosaurs? Saber tooth tigers? Maybe even the Do Do?

Ivory-Billed Woodpecker Really Extinct?

I've seen a pileated woodpecker up close a few times at Congaree National Park. Once I was so close in my kayak, it was amazing! But I REALLY wanted to see or hear an Ivory-Billed Woodpecker. Many people are afraid they are extinct. My dad showed me this article in The State newspaper about the search for them in South Carolina.


I'm disappointed they didn't find any Ivory Billed Woodpeckers, but I still think they are out there! Listen to one at this site so you'll know if you hear it! What do you think?

Koalas Future in Doubt

Have you ever seen or heard of a koala? They may go extinct within a decade!
But it doesn't mean they will. We can save them and help them stay alive for generations and generations.
We have koalas at the Riverbanks Zoo here in Columbia. Koalas are not bears. They are actually marsupials, related to the kangaroo. They live n Australia.


You can help save the koala by taking care of the earth and environment in your town. And tell people it's important. And stop by and see them at the zoo. Tell them Mossy sent you! How could let anything happen to the koala? Tell me what you think by clicking "comment."
