    I remember walking in, back in 1978, and laying eyes on the awesome bull elephant. Massive, magnificent and majestic. Then there was a beautiful Bengal tiger of unbelievable size, a “man eater.” Lastly, there was a mesmerizing display of insects with carapace that made precious stones pale in comparison. A great museum.

    The National Zoo used to have a Hippo named Happy (he's currently living at the Minnesota Zoo). IIRC the stuffed hippo at the museum is Happy's late dad.

    DC is…not a great vacation city, but the National Mall and museums area great place to spend a couple days. Truly world class museums and if I remember from a kid, they were free. And many different museum themes….dinosaurs, space, gems, science, American history, art, a bug zoo, etc. all next to each other. 😅

    Have you been out to the La Brea Tar Pits out in Los Angeles? They have a museum with all the fossils that have been excavated from there!

    • @drhkleinert8241
      @drhkleinert8241 7 днів тому

      Yes, its interesting. I was there many years ago and remember the HUUUGE skeleton of a Mammoth and those many Skulls of wolves. But there are no Dinosaur bec the tar pits are not old enough for them.

    @smrtrthnu1571 29 днів тому +4

    Let me help you out. Regarding your remark to "bring back the wooly mammoth, bring back the dinosaurs, bring back all of it" . The reason they have discussed cloning the wooly mammoth is because first off they have viable DNA due to their remains being trapped and frozen in permafrost as recently as 10,000 yrs ago so there are tissue and even blood samples available in conjunction with the fact that their is a relatively close analogue still alive today in the form of elephants. Even with that they would not be bringing the wooly mammoth back, but a pretty close copy. Part mammoth and part elephant. Regarding dinosaurs, they went extinct far to long ago for their to be any DNA available and there's not really a close analogue of most dinosaurs available. So even if they had DNA the best they could probably do would be a small dino-chicken
