What happans next?
McDonalds releases a new burger!
Ah yes, yet another case of Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
Bringing them back from extinction just so we can make sure they suffer before going extinct again by us.
There are countless species going extinct as I’m typing this bullshit.
What do you mean? We have the perfect conditions for this ice age monster elephant, they have wool because they want it warm, we have it warm now so why be upset??? /s
Bringing back mammoths could have a sizable positive impact on arctic ecosystem AND climate change.
It sounds like a far fetched idea but this article is talking in details about this theory.
Right. Cuz the fastest and better way to stop this planet from a climate disaster is bringing back mammals from extinction while we are busy exterminatig all other life on the planet.
Sounds like pure hubries
The technology being developed to bring back an extinct species could be used to ensure extinction is no longer a possibility.
I really think you missed my point. And if not, please explain how it can undo all the damage that causes current extinctions
I do acknowledge that the planet is fucked and making a wooly mammoth will not in any way address the root causes of that. The point I’m making is that if this is developed and perfected there is hope for a path back to biodiversity as long as humans get their shit together and unfuck the planet.
I know that the glass is way beyond half empty, I have to remember that there is a little water left or else all I’m left with is despair
I feel you my friend…
“You are alive again, no need to thank us. Now go out and play, it’s winter and 40°C, you’ll love it!”
The science is very neat, but should likely be focusing on solving current issues instead of creating new ones.
Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
Imagine how confused that mammoth is going to be.
man i wish that’s how genetics worked
I don’t fucking care, I want woolly mammoths and dodos.
