I was just thinking about Elephants and how intelligent and social they are. A lone mammoth would be sad.
i mean they'd be birthed by elephants, presumably they'd also live with elephants at first.
start with making sure the things actually stay alive, then move onto making them act like mammoths properly.
Hmm good point. For some reason I just assumed they'd grow it in a tube.
