What if Jurassic Park wasn’t just a movie… but a preview?This week we’re diving into de-extinction—the real science behind bringing extinct animals back to life. From woolly mammoths and dodo birds to CRISPR gene editing and “dino-chicken” experiments, we break down how close we actually are to recreating the past… and whether we should be doing it at all.We’re talking real companies, real timelines, and very realethical questions—like where these animals would even live, how ecosystems could be affected, and why this is starting to feel a little too close to Jurassic Park for comfort. Because let’s be honest… just because we can do something doesn’t mean we should 👀This episode is sponsored by Audible.
