Russia: Tiny animal revived after 24,000 years then cloned itself

Ever seen “Life” (2017)

More like, have you ever seen "The Thing" (1982)

Animal???

sounds safe. someone should taste it

First it's gonna clone the dogs.. then its gonna come for you- just make sure you check peoples teeth to see if they have fillings, because it can't clone metal.

Malavin and his team drilled into permafrost near the Alazeya river in north-east Siberia, Russia, in 2015. They found a single rotifer, a worm-like creature less than a quarter of a millimetre long. When the researchers warmed it up and gave it food, it became active. It also reproduced, because it is a bdelloid rotifer that can clone itself without the need for a sexual partner.

Thats amazing, if true.

Makes you wonder what else they have found, and messed with.

I just read one funny answer in the greek forum
"the chinese would have eaten it before it managed to get cloned"

Makes you think we know almost nothing about life on earth, imagine about life elsewhere
