De-Extinction Techniques for Conservation
The chapter delves into de-extinction methods used to revive extinct populations for conservation objectives through genetic engineering advancements and techniques like selective breeding, cloning, and CRISPR Cas9. Examples such as the Ouroc and Baccato species are used to illustrate the recreation of extinct species' DNA by combining DNA fragments from various sources, potentially leading to the revival of extinct species like the thylacine.
