  • Alberto Fernández-Arias, head of the Hunting, Fishing and Wetland department in Aragon, Spain worked with his team in 2003 to bring a bucardo (a species of wild goat) back from extinction using cloning methodology. It was the first successful de-extinction. Unfortunately, the cloned bucardo only survived 10 minutes and died of respiratory failure. Fernández-Arias is committed to using current technology to ensure a more successful de-extinction.

    I'm pretty sure he was quite nervous. When you have something to say of that huge is not easy to say decades of work in only 12 minutes. It also happened to me when I started to learn English I got nervous to speak anything

    some call this sort of thing "playing God", i call it doing the right thing to make up for our mistakes. science has given us the knowledge and it's only a matter of time before the get the tools and processes right, at which point i feel we have an obligation to see this through

    His English is a whole lot better than my Spanish and I’m pretty sure my accent when attempting a speech in Spanish would be horrendous. I think he did a good job and good luck to his work in the future

    I want this to become a reality. Imagine bringing species back from our own mistakes. Imagine having Caspian tigers, passenger pigeons and even Dodo-birds walking the Earth again. We must go through with it, despite what we believe.

    I'm glad he showed the foetus that was miscarried I don't like when a cloning researcher hides their failures to make their work seem cleaner.
    I support this sort of research, but don't lie to me about what is meant by a 'failure'.
    Also: What an incredible way to die, crushed by a falling tree or tree limb. Not as rare a fate as I'd like.

    Saying God did not intend this is refurted by saying that God did intend just this to happen; neither is helping in the judgement of this.

    Why waste more time and money to bring these extinct animals back concentrate all your resources on the animals who are on the brink of extinction . Without a natural habitat what will become of these animals ?

      The bucardo went extinct because of overhunting, there is plenty of high quality habitat for ibexes in the Pyrenees

      Resurrecting extinct animals could be a valuable tool to help encourage people to preserve more natural habitat. There are many who would pay good money to see some of these animals in a reserve or park. Just look how valuable Wolf Tourism has become in Yellowstone.

    i wonder, if at the end of some lifeforms continuation(like extinctions due to over predation, asteroids or virus's )if even species that were dependent on each other to maintain an ecosystem just become trapped towards the end and because of said attachment to historical lifecycles and organisms cannot make it into the next life or a new karma cycle. like whites and indians.woodpeckers and pine trees, america and israel,mayan ghosts and the spanish

    I believe in God. But why would he punish anyone for bringing back any extinct animal? My concern is. Why bring back any extinct creature? There is a chance that it will become extinct again.

      Humans abused these animals and caused them to become extinct... The creator expects us to take care of the earth (Genesis 1:28,29)...this wasn't done so let humans use their God given intellect to undo the damage they've caused... I'd love to see a Dodo or a tasmanian tiger one day...
