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.
