Description

This is the short, 5-minute (ish) teaser of our episode about de-extinction.  Now that the technology has arrived, larger questions loom about whether or not this is a good idea, what the consequences might be good or bad, and the potential role in our biodiversity and climate crises.
We have three incredible scientists joining us for this roundtable discussion:

Dr. Mackenzie Kwak - parasitologist at the University of Singapore
Dr. Dave Strayer - ecologist and invasive species expert at the Cary Institute
Dr. Lynn Rothschild - astro biologist and evolutionary biologist at Brown University

This was a fascinating and enlightening discussion that you won't want to miss!  If you enjoy this teaser version, make sure to check out the full episode!
