Ancient DNA discovery could be game-changer for woolly mammoth de-extinction efforts.

So here's a question, how many of these species maintain learned traits and behaviors brought about by environmental conditions that can't be replicated?
Just thinking about domesticated animals like dogs, they basically have some instinctual habits or I guess you could say anatomically informed behaviors, but other parts of their behavior is entirely predicated on how they are raised and if they are socialized with other dogs and things like that.
Would a Jurassic Park style woolly mammoth really be an Elephant of Theseus at this point?
