New butterflies introduced in San Francisco's Presidio after species went extinct in 1940s 

Insects

@bluelava4282 yes, insects are animals.

Carbon based lifeforms

@@patrickday4206 unless... ailyuns disguised as animals...

@@patrickday4206 poetic

There are many species of “blue” butterflies.

@@haseo8244 Good point. However this video is speaking of about three specific closely related species. My comment was attached to this video so this is the context of my comment. Thank you!

Is that why you modify the genes of your neighbors and dogs? To make them look like your old neighbors and dogs who died? This wasn't symbiosis, it was creating Frankenstein's monster without as noble a goal.

@@notchomomma239 Nobody created these butterflies. They simply used DNA to determine the closest relatives of the extinct butterflies.

​@@notchomomma239, I'll have two of whatever you took.

I can go twice as highhh

Take a look! It’s in a book…

A Reading Rainbow!

I can see me now sitting on the ABC rug in first grade(1995), watching this with my classmates. Some of whom I’m still friends with to this day!

I can get twice as high 😂

Lol I know right. I never knew they like Gatorade.

The closest relative but yeah.

Didn't read the title, eh? 😂😂😂

​@@virg0_lem0nade I read the title,whichis nonsensical. If a species is extinct it can't be brought back, because it's extinct. We haven't begun recreating unique species, best we can do is a hybrid with some of their genes. So the title is inherently nonsensical. Your appeal to it, equally so

Quick proof that God is real: if there is a building that you see, but you don’t know who built it, then the logical sense is to assume that a builder built it, and it didn’t just show up out of nowhere. If there is painting, then that’s proof that there’s a painter who made that painting even if they have passed away a long time ago. So, if we have creation- Earth, the sky, grass, flowers, animals, us, etc, then isn’t the logical sense to assume there is a creator? Have you ever used God’s name in vain-like a cuss word, lied, stolen, hated someone, gossiped, lusted, etc(see more in the 10 commandments)? This is called sin and we’ve all done at least one of these. Now, sin is basically doing something against God’s will. Now because we have done something against His will, it’s good to note that He is Just. A JUST judge wouldn’t look at a guilty criminal and give them a non-guilty verdict for what they’ve done. And if the Judge is Just, they wouldn’t let the criminal go if they had said that they had done something Good. Our actions are way more serious and cannot be paid off of just because I did something Good. (So good works cannot save us) This is exactly How God is! He’s so just that He looks at us, and He has to send us to hell. Scary right? But HERE’S THE GOOD NEWS!! Usually, there is bail- a payment that someone can do for a guilty criminal so that they can be set free- legally. Now here’s JESUS, who is GOD and takes our place for us THROUGH DYING ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SINS- to basically pay off the price that sin created. See Romans 6:23, but here’s what Jesus did: John 3:16, Romans 4:25, 2 Corinthians 5:21 AND Romans 10:9-10 If we believe in Jesus and repent (turn away from sin) then we will be saved from our punishment. But we must continue this relationship with Jesus!

Kinda like they did with the grey wolves in Yellowstone.

Shit's gangsta, son

Do you suffer from dementia?

They're gone. Their genome can't be recreated. You can introduce a precursor genus, but even if every condition was identical to the conditions during their original evolution they'll still end up different due to chaos. Once it's extinct it's gone, even genome cloning requires a host whose genome contaminates the clone. We will NEVER have a wooly mammoth, the best we can hope for is a wooly African elephant

If they were do this with T-Rex's closest living relatives like they did with the butterfly, in a place where T-Rex lived, then they would release a bunch of chickens in Texas. Sounds easy.

I second this proposal very hard.

😂😂😂😂

@@sexgod6909 lol I'm a little dramatic I suppose 😂

I wanna see a project that introduces normal people to California to replace the woke idiots

So? they are cousins. The distinction between a variety and a species is somewhat arbitrary anyway.

@@GH-oi2jf I think of it like replacing extinct humans with an altered chimp. Cousins for sure but not the same.

It looks more like a moth too

Gatorade is just water, sugar, and salt. These are all things that butterflies seek out normally. Sugar water from flowers and salts from sweat, carcasses, dung, mud puddles, etc.

Now they're going to cause hundreds of hurricanes and tsunamis in southeast Asia and India. Thanks a lot, scientists! 🤓

Spiders gotta eat don't they.

No. Watch the video again. The tested dna to get the most similar species they could that already exists and is not extinct.

Who is Who?

@@Semper_Iratus I can't recognize who is bad and who is good

@@Semper_Iratus There in lies the rub..

@@nicolasnicolas2801That’s the rub homie..

Most humans are perfectly decent. However, you’re a simpleton.

You need violent predators to not have eco systems collapse. People made the mistake with wolves decades ago.

"become accustomed to a new climate or to new conditions."

You are clearly a cunning linguist.

It's not hard to look it up.

@@justmejenny7986 when he misspells "acclimated" it makes it slightly more difficult. 🤪

Good thing nature is naturally a beatiful theme park with imense diversity. I'm glad they're restoring some part of nature instead of being bound with lifeless lawns. Plus, if one personally wanted to, they could bring nature into their own yards and expand that "theme park"

A hundred years from now, it will be like it was a thousand years ago.

You must be fun at parties.

Everything does not stop just because something bigger is going on.

I’d prefer to hear about something other then war thank you very much

Starlings were not native to the area they were introduced in.
