That's incredible.

That's what we're hoping can happen with the woolly mammoth, with the Tasmanian tiger, with a lot of these other de-extincted species.

Carefully, yes.

I mean... Yeah, we'll have to be extremely careful about that.

But there are so many bioethicists and brilliant people on the board of Colossal that are doing this.

And a lot of people said, you know, we shouldn't be doing this.

You shouldn't be playing with genetics at that level, de-extincting species.

If we don't do it here in the United States, actually in my hometown of Dallas...

Other countries will do it first.

It's kind of like, in some respects, some of the greatest advances in human history.

They can be dangerous and they can be incredibly beneficial.

I trust our culture and I trust our people to do it well.

It's a tool that humankind needs in its toolbox.

If we extinct a species deliberately or by accident, that's a good tool to have in our toolbox to be able to bring it back.

What if we find out that we've extincted a species that we really need?

for the health of the planet to support 8 billion people on the planet.

And we look in the toolbox and there's nothing that can undo it.

That would not be a good day.

Wow.

Let's just say there's nothing that makes it impossible.
