De-extinction efforts are technically challenging, as some animals, like dinosaurs, have been extinct for too long for their DNA to be viable.

Is it possible to bring dinosaurs back from the dead? Non-avian dinosaurs went extinct millions of years ago, but could we use DNA to create a real-life Jurassic Park?

De-extinction using genetic engineering has several ethical issues. Worse, if successful, it can significantly impact global biodiversity, leading to more problems.

De-extinction isn’t worth the ethical cost.

This has been done! Spanish scientists brought back to life an extinct wild goat. Sadly, the cloned animal did not survive.

From an Australian frog that swallowed its own eggs to woolly mammoths, scientists could soon bring back long-lost species from the dead.
