Ummm, why is that?:

Microscopic analysis of the found remains revealed that the mammoths that inhabited the territory of present-day Volgograd Oblast were not covered in thick fur. This suggests that the climate here was warmer and milder a hundred thousand years ago.

And yet, they are extinct... :(

Recently, mammoths were found at the bottom of the Volga River:

Opera, starting with version 15, simply became terrible; don't update to it, for those who don't know.
If you're interested, just search for "Opera 15" on Google.

I wanted to call an ambulance for myself after installing a version supposedly 12.16 - which Opera 12.15 offered me, notifying me of an update. Usually, I don't click "download and install", but go to the official website and download the international version from there... That's been my habit for a long time. ) Even when confirming the file download, I noticed that the name didn't mention 12.16. Like something with 15 in it. Anyway, after installation, 2 additional shortcuts appeared (on the desktop and the quick launch bar), and something opened up. After examining it, I felt sick. There wasn't much to examine, as it essentially resembles something if you completely castrate Google Chrome. I went to the site again looking for a normal Opera. I decided to watch the video "See Opera in action", to understand whether this is reality, or some enemies dumped some junk onto the server for download. After watching, my anxiety increased, but... Below the video I saw: "Looking for the previous version? Download Opera 12.". I took advantage of that offer, and as a result I got version 12.16. In short, in the coming hours I have no time to gather info, but after quickly glancing at the first posts on Operafan, in the discussion thread of the 15th crap - I realized that only the hope that somewhere there is info that Opera will not die and will be supported and developed, keeps me from drowning my consciousness entirely in sorrowful feelings. And in parallel, there will exist the created ChromeOpera, relevant for the current dumbing-down, and the future dumbing-down generation of the planet.

The old Opera on the Presto engine (12.x-line) will not be developed. For some time, updates will be released to close found security vulnerabilities, but even regarding the stability of the released updates, there is no hope here anymore, as the old team (about 90 employees) has been fired.
The new chromopera or operium without the ability to customize the interface (customizable context menus with the ability to insert JS) is impossible to use - a blank for dummies.

The news that the remains of a mammoth were found in the ice of the Lesser Lyakhovsky Island of the Novosibirsk Archipelago stirred the entire scientific community... this time, scientists were lucky – the animal's carcass was so well preserved that blood, a valuable biological material, can be extracted from it, giving scientists a chance to completely restore the genetic code of the woolly elephant.
"... further, it is purely a technical question. There are no fundamental limitations to cloning a mammoth," says Andrey Tatarenko, Director of Scientific Research at the Center for Innovative Biotechnology "Allel".
... According to experts, a mammoth clone may appear within this decade. And this is no longer sensational fiction, but modern biotechnology.
In a few years, it may become a reality not only to clone prehistoric animals, but also to treat humans at the genetic level.
... "Over the past 10 years, there has been a revolution in reading genetic information: now we can read this book quickly and efficiently. There are specific areas where this medicine will be in demand even more than traditional medicine," says Doctor of Biological Sciences, Head of the Laboratory of Genomics and Epigenomics of Vertebrates at the Center for "Bioengineering" of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Yegor Prokhorchuk.
... A number of methods from the future are already available today. They save lives, preserve health, and are even capable of predicting the future.
