was found on an island off northern Russia in May 2013.Its body was still in good shape because of the ice.Something that looked like blood came but of it when it was first discovered.So far,scientists have found out that the animal,who they nick named Buttercup,was 25 meters tall and about 50 years old when it died.By examining the things in its intestines(肠道),scientists can tell it ate grassland plants like dandelions and buttercups.Woolly mammoths have been extinct(灭绝的)for 10,000 years.Many scientists think they could leant a lot more about the animal if they could study a living example.Dr.Tori Herridge,a scientist at the Natural History Museum in London,England,helped study the woolly mammoth’s body.She doesn’t think scientists should try to clone it.She said that scientists would need an Asian elephant to be the clone’s mother.This means they would have to keep several elephants in captivity(囚禁)while they experiment with the cloning process.But Asian elephants are endangered,and don’t do well in captivity.Besides,giving birth to a woolly mammoth could be dangerous for the elephant mother.Insung Hwang is one of the scientists at Sooam,a company from South

cloning the animal.28.The mammoth found in May 2013 .A.was discovered in eastern RussiaB.lived about 10,000 years agoC.was kept well in the iceD.died at an early age29.The woolly mammoth Buttercup was
