Well if the animal is extinct you probably wouldn't be able to get its DNA, so you wouldn't be able to clone it. Besides of it was that easy to bring back extinct animals, it would already have been done, I think

Most likely not because it helps the animal become no longer extinct. It might even help us in our scientific progress.

No, because they would cause chaos for example if they bring dinosaurs back to life they would obviously kill humans

How can scientists keep animals from becoming extinct?

The most obvious way of keeping animals from becoming extinct is through the endangered species protection agency. Basically, other countries need to realize that killing off animals for their skin, eggs, etc... does not help populations make a comeback... However, as to scientists, they can obtain DNA samples and flash freeze the samples for whatever time period is necessary. Then, should the scientists wish to "resurrect" the extinct species, a lengthy process must be taken to reproduce these animals. It's basically like cloning animals (It's not that easy).

Why should we bring extinct animals back?

If we don't help them then they will be gone forever and are impossible to get back. Such as the dodo, the mammoth and many others. Scientists are trying to bring back the mammoth by extracting the DNA from a baby one found in Serbia. Many species of animals will be extinct before we even discover them. They just found a new species of ant in Canada 5 days ago. ======================================================== Extinct animals can't be saved. Actually, there's the possibility that some extinct species may be "brought back" by cloning them using tissue or DNA. Not all extinct animal left behind viable DNA. This may be possible with certain animals, but probably not all.
