Genetic Engineering to Bring Back Extinct Species
There are many species in this world that have come a long ways in evolution. ... They are endangered and are not far off from becoming completely extinct. ... In this case it means bringing back extinct species through genetic engineering and cloning. Take note that this subject will not be referring to the bringing back of prehistoric beings such as dinosaurs, for it has been concluded that the resurrecting of creatures of that time period is close to impossible and there is no way that they can survive with our different atmosphere, habitats, diseases, and foods. ... Genetic engineering has been studied by scientists for decades and has only now begun to break the surface into society and introduce many breakthroughs such as cloning. There are numerous stores of extinct animal DNA that have been preserved. ... Australia is nearing the time when they test their immaculate work on the DNA of the recently extinct Tasmanian tiger. Some species have already been successfully cloned but have lived only a short time; such was the case of the nearly extinct wild gaur that was born from an Iowa cow and only lived two days. ...
Scientists estimate that species in the world today are becoming extinct at a rate of 10,000-50,000 per year! ... As for todays mass extinction…the low level of species diversity may become a permanent state…” A look at the facts can tell you that the arrival of humans has caused mass extinctions across the world, and that human over-hunting, pollution, and destroying of habitat is responsible for most wipe-outs.
