The New Science of Extinction, Bring Back the King
There was an animal called the Piccardo, or the Pyrenean Iberks. The goat with incredible curved horns lived on the Pyrenees in between France and Spain. In 2000 there was just one left so scientists tried to clone it from a biopsy sample. It took several failed attempts but they eventually got Celia delivered by C-section. Dr Hen Pukture is author of a book on the new science of extinction - Bring Back the King.
