In 1813 a man by the name of John James Audubon witnessed a beautiful sight. Pigeons filled the skies of Ohio. Men and boys would shoot at the pigeons and the number decreased significantly. In 2003, Spanish and French scientists were focused on a wild goat named the bucardo. When the last bucardo died they tried to clone it, but it died after birth. Scientists have been trying to brink extinct animals back by using the preserved DNA. The most famous attempt is to bring back the Wolly Mammoth by using the preserved DNA found in chunks in Siberia. The use the Mammoth’s DNA and mix it with that of an elephant, the mammoth’s most closest living
In the The Case for De-Extinction: Why We Should Bring Back the Woolly Mammoth the author talks about how to bring these extinct animals back by using DNA and how it will not only benefit us but the upcoming generations. Unlike the author in the The Case Against De-Extinction: It’s a Fascinating but Dumb Idea he says “as National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore has emphasized to me, zoos are already overwhelmed trying to breed endangered species for reintroduction and thus facing triage conundrums about which species to save and which to let go.” (Ehrlich n.pag.) So as I stated in the claim if we can`t bring back the extinct animals we should at least protect the ones that are about to go extinct and learn from our
Scientists are now very closer than ever to having the bringing back the Woolly Mammoth. The plan is for scientists to first try to create a hybrid between an Asian elephant and a woolly mammoth. The plan is to do this by genome sequencing. Many scientists are involved in this and animals, the food chain and ecosystem will be affected by this. However, scientists are expecting this to happen in a couple of years and maybe even more time. The scientists want to do this because Mammoths could help modern day animals live in cooler locations in which they are at much lower risk of conflict with humans. This is occurring in North Siberia. Scientists are expecting positive results and are hoping for positive results. Therefore, scientists are close to bringing back Woolly Mammoths.
Humans should not bring back extinct creatures since they can become invasive. If humans brought back a mammoth where would they keep it? Would it become invasive? As we all know, the mammoth was the biggest land mammal to roam the Earth. This makes it very easy for the mammoth to become, or to be invasive. If the mammoth is invasive, it would take up land, use limiting factors in that ecosystem, and possibly harm or kill other animals. This would end in a terrible result. Another example is the Megalania. The Megalania is a reptile (lizard) that went extinct around 30,000 years ago. According to www.list25.com, “Scientific estimates regarding the size of the lizard vary greatly but it probably could have been about 25 feet long which would
In 1993, Steven Spielburg’s Jurassic Park introduced the concept of bringing extinct species back. In 2003, a team of Spanish and French scientists took Spielburg’s movie to the next level—they successfully brought back the Pyrenean ibex, a species of wild goat (93). With increasing rates of extinction, the scientific community is debating whether or not this process of de-extinction should continue to be pursued. Although it would be remarkable to visit an exhibit featuring a saber-tooth tiger or woolly mammoth, these animals went extinct for a reason; humans should not bring back extinct animals, but instead use the funding for more practical purposes.
One thing about the news today that my Mawmaw has noticed is how it has changed so much since she was young. If there was a shooting or a tragedy, it was a rare occasion. Today, a major crime happens weekly. From the church shooting in Georgia, to the explosion in France, and, just recently, the shooting in Colorado at the abortion clinic all happened within months of each other. She especially recognizes how the devil is attacking young people of today.
Over the past decades, scientists have developed numerous approach to de-extinct species through back breeding, cloning and genetic engineering. Bringing back extinct species has advantages for both humans and animals. The de-extinction of species such as woolly mammoth and saber tooth tigers would not only advanced scientific knowledge but also have environmental benefit such as restoring environment that are damaged or threatened with the help of certain now-extinct species. But the consequences to bringing extinct species back greatly outweighs the positive. While Victor Frankenstein pursuit for knowledge in itself is justified, playing with the boundaries between life and death is something that should not have tempered with. Extinct species could carry diseases that could potentially wipe humanity from the face of the planet or result in other unforeseen consequences. The de-extinction of species should not be tolerated in order to avoid consequences that could endanger the lives of humanity as well surrounding species.

Since Victorian times, Filey has been one of the North’s most popular seaside resorts where holidaymakers can enjoy beautiful sands which are both safe and clean. Its long crescent-shaped beach extends south from Filey Brigg to the start of Bempton Cliffs, a distance of about six miles.
Throughout the course of history, humans have advanced at an exponential rate leading up to this day. While these advances are often able to help the world and the people around us, it also has the potential to cause conflict and expose the worst characteristics of mankind. The thought that “Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons.” (R. Buckminster Fuller) can seem a bit foolish, but is subtly perpetrating our everyday lives as we succumb to so many unintentional, yet terrible features of just being human. Our addiction and love of the newest and fastest pieces of combined human knowledge is something anyone in this day and age can understand, yet is something that few try to resist. Only an astonishingly
Rap music has come a long way, since the early 90s. Nowadays people copy each other’s music style because they do not have the creativity to create their own style. Although there is an underground rapper that creates some soul touching music. His name is Big K.R.I.T., short for King Remembered In Time. His music is not popular throughout the US due to the fact that he is not signed to a famous record label. He has his own he named “Multi Till The Sun Die”. Big K.R.I.T. is a self-independent working artist, and according to hotnewhiphop.com he is one of the most soulful artist in the rap game that is still active.
How many people do you know who are incredible? You might think everyone you know is incredible, but are they really? First reason why i'm incredible is I play a ton of sports. I play basketball, football, baseball, soccer, tennis, lacrosse, disk golf, golf, and swim team. I am incredibly good at sports, especially baseball. I have got M.V.P. three times in a row, I have also made the game winning run, thrown the game winning pitch, and I have pitched a 38 pitch game. Another reason i’m incredible is my talents. Besides sports, I can make anybody laugh when I tell them my jokes, i can impress anyone with my amazing card tricks, and I have won reserve grand champion at a rodeo
This article focuses on the arguments for and against the idea of cloning or bringing back the extinct species of Woolly mammoths. The term scientists and researchers use for bringing an extinct species back to life is called de-extinction. George Church concludes that introducing these extinct mammoths into its native regions like the tundra, could possibly reduce the amount of heat released from the ancient grasses that previously grew in the Artic ecosystems. Church's ideas are directly from the followers who believe that cloning these animals and reintroducing them into the ecosystem will not only benefit humans, but also allow geneticists to protect part of the elephant family. Some opponents argue that de-extinction ethically isn't right.
Scientist are closer than ever to recreating mammoths. They have been working so hard for several years. But this is wrong. This is inhumane and just wrong. They died for a reason and if the come back they will not be able to survive. It is against all religious rules. This is wrong and close to a disaster.
Technology is the sole reason cloning is even possible, but it is not enough to save endangered species on its own. Due to technology, extinct species may even possible be brought back into existence. A closely related species, currently living, that could serve as a surrogate mother and a well-preserved source of DNA from the extinct
