by Peter Jackson, director of Lord of the Rings, plans to spend millions for the revival of a huge airless bird that was hunted to extend in New Zealand 500 years ago.
The 63-year-old believes that it is possible to bring the MOA back on earth with 10 to 12 feet, centuries after the creature of Maori hunters.
The MOA had robust legs and a long neck and lived from a diet of leaves, twigs and fruits. In the past, they lived in a huge New Zealand from the coast to the mountains.
New Zealander Sir Peter has teamed up with colossal laboratories and biosciences based in Dalla’s resident in the lost giants of his country to life again, almost Jurassic-like park.
It is the company that claimed at the beginning of this year that it was “disappointed” by the Dire Wolf when it announced the birth of three puppies.
Sir Peter, who is estimated to be £ 1.3 billion, not only invested £ 11 million in the company, but also made his private collection of 400 MOA bones available.
Use the DNA from the bones and that of the next survivors, such as the Emu and the South American Tinamou, and believes that it can construct a MOA genetic engineering.
“The films are my day job and the Moa are my funny thing I do,” said Sir Peter.
“There were probably 150,000 huge Moa walking around,” he added.
“We don’t want to release it to the wilderness and we don’t want to bring it to zoos. We want to give MOA a natural environment that is as large as possible.”
It is not just the MOA and the Dire Wolf on the Colossal agenda, added Sir Peter.
“The colossal team is working hard to bring the woolen mammoth, the Dodo and many other extinct animals back – who have only lived in our imagination so far,” he said.
“We are on the eve of the DE-Extinction, which go into an impressive new reality from the field of speculative science fiction.”
Other eyebrow burns, which were claimed by colossal, are the development of “wool mice” with characteristics of woolen mutation by using the genes of Asian elephants.
Experts expressed doubts that MOA could be returned from extinction.
“It is not possible to deactivate things,” Vincent Lynch, professor of evolutionary biology at the University of Buffalo in the USA, told The Telegraph.
“In view of enough time, after enough time, you can probably do what you say, what you will do, what is being given genetically, to develop an ES
“But that doesn’t make it a MOA – that makes it a transgenic emu,” he added.
“The genetic technical part is a challenge, I think you have to create a kind of artificial egg to grow. I don’t know that this has been done beforehand, so you would have to invent it.
“The genetic technical approach you will use was carried out beforehand, but not on this size and not in an EMU.”
