We are doomed we are saved #14

The rapid spread of humans is causing many species to disappear off
the face of the earth – in a so-called mass extinction. Some
scientists are trying to reverse this process, by bringing back
extinct species, such as the Dodo, the Passenger Pigeon, or the
Wolly Mammoth. In the 14th episode of We’re doomed, we’re saved
Andreas Horchler and Louise von Stechow discuss the breeding
procedures and genetic engineering techniques that might be used
for brining back extinct animals. We also discuss the ethical
implications from resource waste to animal welfare – and what it
might mean to be the first and the last member of a (de)extinct
species.
