    Should we bring back dinosaurs?  What about a woolly mammoth? If scientists were able to recreate extinct animals, it might allow them to be studied to answer questions such as why they became extinct in the first place.  But would it be right to do this?

    Come along to the Horniman Museum's Cafe Scientifique where a number of scientists will try to convince us to bring back an extinct creature.  Ask questions, take part in the debate, then vote for the creature you would like to resurrect!
