"The only mistake I ever made was not starting." "The only mistake I will ever make is not continuing." I hope that if you feel a lull in production, and if it's not something that will crush you completely, that you continue making these videos.
I really love these deep dive biology videos (Moth Light Media, Ben G Thomas, etc). One of my favorite genres of video content and glad they're getting the attention they deserve. Keep up the great work.
i think itll certainly be possible in the future I think the bigger issue is once you clone it how is it going learn its behavior if its a social animal or one that is taught by its parents for example the wooly mammoth itd just be a normal elephant with hair and bigger tusks its not going to know what to eat in the tundra and how it historically interacted wit its environment
Around the minute 9:25 you say that a species brought back from extinction would never have the same genetic identity. Yet, as you yourself explain, this has been proven possible in the case of the Pyrenean Ibex. If cloning came so close more than 20 years ago, I don't see why we shouldn't consider it as a possibility. Of course, the priority should always be protecting the currently endangered species, but why not gathering all the genetic material possible to enable a future deextinction of an endangered species? I think we should aim for that with the most recently extinct organisms.
The problem with deextinction is not so much IF we could theoretically perfectly replicate the genome of an extinct species, but what purpose would de-extinction even serve? Ethical, logistical, and potentially even ecological issues would arise if dozens of species were brought back into existence. The chances of an extant organism being used to copy the genetic code of an extinct genotype would not only be difficult in and of itself, but having the embryo properly develop into a fertile organism would also be challenging. Similar problems occur with phenomena like parthenogenesis(i.e. a low survivabiltiy rate).
@@jackkrell4238 I could agree that the clonation process would be difficult and complex, but so is everything in science. That shouldn't be a deterrent, technology and knowledge would continue to improve. From an ecological point, deextinctionn still makes sense for recently disappeared species, but only when the pressures that lead to their extinction have been dealt with. You do not want to bring back an species just to see it go extinct again, but the niche they occupied is empty an the ecosystem would benefit from having them back if possible.
But the thing is, they have to make lots of embryos from different goats (using goats as an example now) to successfully create a new population. When you only have 2 goats, their kids need to breed with their sibling making their offspring weaker and results in a quick end of the new population
@@Mirthe4390 genetic diversity would definitely be a big challenge, but in many of todays critically endangered species it already is. That is why it would be key to preserve as much genetic information as possible from said species.
Keep doing what you're doing science-man! I'd love to get into biology more and integrate it in daily life, so id love if this becomes a frequent thing
watched a couple of ur videos already mate, and gotta say you do a good job at this, I dreamed of making video essays before if you could give tips and tricks that b awesome keep up the good work man
What I love about your content are the videos where you talked about *infanticide in nature* / *Winner and Loser* for me and the answers/research you gave was the same. I always plotted actions on humans did equivalent to animals, I could see the exact same action, emotions just a regular thing a human shares with animals. We are not so different but what comes to my mind is what is so different with us. Why do we evolve so intensely intelligent it’s interesting, I just think the moment we gained the ability of thinking is what changed our course of life.
If two animals can breed, you'd think that would be pretty damning that they're the same species, but this is a good example of how you could argue against that: same genes, different phylogeny.
I unfortunately do not know any terms but my thoughts are that things are just evolving again. One of the concepts I never understood is why do mollusks still exist if everything evolved from them? Do some just decide not evolve now and do it later, hence why due to the same environments and just evolution going through trial and error again, they end up evolving into the same things again, like carcinization for crabs or fractals in nature. Things evolve again and take the same path of least resistance as they did before.
I believe the mollusk part is due to a crowded niche. Like if every creature ate just grass that would destroy the grass pop and thus the vast majority would starve.
If we can bring species back, the real test will be if these artifically revived animals can occupy the same ecological niches left by their dead ancestors. If they can, that's a strong case for them being the same species from yet another angle, since the whole reason animals dying out is destructive is that itcan destablize the ecosystem like a whole, such as when timber wolves were removed from Yellowstone National Park.
It's so interesting rail keep doing this. They are so good at migrant to islands, speciate, become flightless, then become extinct or endangered by human or environmental change.
Amazing video ❤by the way,I have an opinion that it is possible to clone paraceratherium by altering the DNA of the rhinoceros through genetic engineering(reverse engineering)so that it resembles its giant version and gigantophitecus,a relative of the orangutan by altering or genetically modifying an orangutan to have similar traits to its extinct relative Is what I express okay or is it not possible or is it possible to recreate these beasts but their ancient habitats still exist in the miocene and eocene?
the other problem is that a species doesnt go extinct when there are no living members, it goes extinct when there is a very low population. so if a species is extinct it can stop being extinct if humans intervene and massively breed them. thus when you say that a species decided to stop being extinct, it means that the presure (likely predatory) had been released- not that there is a new and different species which took it's place.
Doesn’t this count as devolution since these birds got flight back and lost it again? Especially considering that all of this happened in a relatively short period? I know “devolution” doesn’t exist under biological definition, but this bird quite literally went backwards in its development, flightlessness is not a gain, it’s a loss
I wouldn't really call it de-evolutions it's just that evolution doesn't erase what was gained in the past and thus they are in a in-between phase where they are evolving into something else like it takes less time to get a dodo than it takes to get Dinosaur through evolution.
You definitely have talent in making videos. I enjoyed listening to every single one of them.
That means a lot. Thank you!

"Meatrider"🤣 the praise is extremely warranted. for a channel with double digits, these videos are so clear of even huge channels like sci show etc
@@mickey3277 what does this even mean nowadays

How to am I only finding this channel now??
I love these types of videos!

probably my new favorite youtube channel, amazing and fascinating videos and topics please never stop!!
Thank you! I won’t be stopping anytime soon.
Yep. My new favorite channel. Keep going man
I like how at the end of every video you try to make the videos topic about ur own youtube channel
This guys content is so good, it's been what I have been looking for my entire life fr fr ong
Amazing video 🎉
Appreciate it :D
bro you gonna blow up soon. easy 100k+ channel keep uploading consistently
Genuinely fantastic content. Keep it up dude

This is quickly becoming one of my favourite youtube channels. It's also making me really rethink what I'm studying at uni.
I discovered your videos like a week ago and you have already became one of my favourite channels

I just started my biology degree and watching your videos keeps me motivated ❤ Thank you so much for making them ^^
Great video good sir! And no laundry ;P Can't wait to see more vids to come!
I saw this on a page years ago and had no idea if it was true or not, so glad I found this wonderful content
watched a couple of ur videos already mate, and gotta say you do a good job at this, I dreamed of making video essays before if you could give tips and tricks that b awesome keep up the good work man
I have learned and enjoyed once again. Great vid!
You deserve way more than 20k subs ..

Fire vid as always, also i should prob stop watching so many biology over explanations…
Nice profile picture

Amazing you've gone from 1k to over 18k in two months 👏 plus one more right here
Something I've always wondered is what species does an hybrid belong to? Take a liger for example, is it a different species?
If we are following the biological species concept than it's a different species since it can't reproduce...
Over 9000 now 😂
Genuinely well deserved. I definitely see it reaching the 10s of thousands over time, and eventually 100k or so. The quality is there.

Highly underrated RUclips channel
I love your vids! Super entertaining
My friend Juan Taco El Buritoid has 5mil subs on his channel about 567lbs trans issues. Your channel is far better, you deserve at least 8mil subs!

I’m excited for woolly mammoths to be “brought back”!

I really like your videos! I subscribed after watching your einer and loser video.
This reminds me of the movie Titan A.E.

Great vid like always
Thank you!
Nice, man
Comment for algorithms luv you brother
love ur vids dude
Thank you!
Oh, so that’s the bird in that one meme.
You are going to do great things buddy. Keep it up.
you post, i sit down.
that's the law.
and it was fantastic! i can't wait for the next lesson
thank you so much!

You forgot one way we can get extinct species back: time travel 😉
Good vid
Don’t forget time travel

I don't know, on a small island, there's no predators, so it wouldn't matter
Birds and the bees, haha you get down huh
