This episode explores the emerging science of de-extinction, where researchers use cloning, genetic engineering, and advanced biotechnology to attempt the revival of extinct species like the woolly mammoth.
While scientists can partially reconstruct ancient DNA, the result may be hybrid organisms rather than perfect recreations of lost animals. Beyond the technical challenges, the field raises major ethical and ecological questions about reintroducing extinct life into modern ecosystems.
As humanity gains the power to manipulate evolution itself, the line between natural biology and technological design may begin to disappear.
