There will not be enough genetic variation in the group to be able to resist new illnesses. Task 2 Careful Reading Why is it wrong to clone an extinct animal if it would have to live in a zoo?

The zoo is not a natural environment for a wild animal.Animal testing, also known as animal experimentation or animal research, is the use of non-human animals in experiments.
