At just a few months old, she’s attracting an awful lot of interest. Lyuba, the baby mammoth 1 is the best-preserved prehistoric 2 animal ever found. She might just be a baby, experts reckoned she drowned at the tender age of three or four months, but she’s been around a while. It's thought she died 37,000 years ago. The discovery last year in Siberia's caused a huge amount of excitement for scientists who hope she holds the key to building a genetic 3 map of extinct animals. All her internal organs have been well preserved and using specialist equipment, they’ve been able to see right inside- heart, liver, veins 4 and all.

And a lot of specialists, a lot of scientists want to participate in this program, and would like to be more involved in this program.”

It’s unlikely we'll be seeing mammoths like this walking around in the near future, but it could lead to some extinct animals being reproduced. Lyuba was named after the wife of a Russian hunter who made the discovery.
