"That’s the truly tragic part. You can’t save an endangered species by cloning animals. I admit, it’s better than having them completely exterminated and lost forever. But they’re curios now, they walk around looking pretty, they’ve become collector’s items for the ultra-rich. A living species isn’t just the DNA code, it’s the whole spread of genetic variety in a big wild population, plus their learned behaviors, and their prey and their predators, all inside a natural environment. But there aren’t any natural environments anymore. Because the climate has changed."
