Huh. I did a Startpage search and that never popped up. Okay, that was a little silly ๐
Thanks. I am glad I am not the only one on the planet who has thought of such a thing
because just having the DNA isn't enough, you need a viable suitable fertilized cell of that animal, and then would need a compatible womb able to accept and nurture it until viable. then that creature would need to be raised in a manner that allows it to live to maturity and then partnered with a suitor. it of course needs the right food and area. so like it needs a zoo, and vets, and animal husbandry experts. and its got to be cute or interesting enough to be worth paying to visit.
Fair points. Aren't they getting ready to bring back mammoths using regular elephants though? Like, surrogates can be things
yea its worth a shot, better than nothing, but still not successful yet, ever. theres a pretty good book about trying this in detail you might enjoy: Jurassic Park.
NCBI's GenBank has some and they're trying to get more.
Here's an article about why it's hard. Spoiler alert, it's poverty.

Also I suggest checking out GenBank and BLAST, whether you're working in biology or not they're fun to play around with.
Did you not watch Jurassic Park??
