I went into the article thinking this company was planning to try to use DNA samples of extinct species to clone them and reintroduce them, but it seems they just want to genetically modify existing animals to look like extinct species? I can't say I really see the point, honestly. Even as far as research into genetic modifications goes, I feel like there are more practical applications of it than that.

Now they need a private island and a theme song by John Williams.

Their life was so preoccupied with whether it could find a way, it didn't stop to think of it should find a way.

Now do ethical republicans. They're extinct.

Its nothing new, nothing extraordinary. Just puffing PR piece from a company that can't live up to its hype.

I feel like dinosaurs making a comeback might be ok at this point

I would suggest the preferable term re--extantion as extinction is a definitive event and any species de-extincted was strictly never extinct in hindsight and so yields runtime errors in the brain like Kirk overloading a supercomputer.
