If you haven't heard, Colossal Biosciences is a biotech company trying to bring back to life extinct species.
They have plans to resurrect the Woolly Mammoth, Tasmanian tiger, and the dodo.
First, this is a colossal waste of money. I am not sure what the point of bringing back extinct species is instead of protecting endangered species. What is the purpose? How does it benefit society in a positive way?
Secondly, it is highly unethical. Species like to dodo are extinct for a reason. They have no purpose in the ecosystem and could potentially cause a great disturbance to the ecological nature.
Some of these species haven't roamed the earth for over 3,000 years!
I think it is INSANE to try to play god or enact fantasies of creating a Jurrasic park!
