One year ago I was sitting in a government trailer in Dawson City trying to submit a grant proposal when my colleague Jeff Bond got an email that would change everything.

"To my knowledge, this level has never been reached for an object in this price category."

I have my doubts about the wisdom of doing this 🤔

However, the startup faces challenges in finding customers for its , as it is a B2B product and mammoth is not widely consumed.

“In June 2022, a gold miner in the Canadian made a remarkable discovery. While working on the traditional lands of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in First Nation, he uncovered the exceptionally well-preserved, frozen remains of a calf that died 30,000 years ago. And this find isn’t the only of its kind…”

Have you seen the 24K gold plated at in South Miami Beach?

“What would the woolly mammoth tell us, if it could speak, about what it’s like to go extinct? Probably it would point out that those Hollywood movies about large-scale environmental disasters are bullshit. That extinction isn’t something that happens dramatically and all at once, but slowly. That it just creeps up, like the ocean after a long, lazy day at the beach.”

@tero

Why? Why would they want to do that? Have they no mercy? They will most probably force sentient beings into a sad existence. Why put them through another extinction? This time caused by the most despicable species on earth, probably even the whole universe: humans.

How the mammoth would or could help fight climate change they don't explain, they just proclaim it. Guess, the super rich would pay exorbitant prices for exclusive mammoth meat ("... the company may explore other options ..."). What a promising business opportunity! Can't let that go by, can they?

Can we please go extinct already? The planet doesn't need us. Biodiversity would thrive without us. We are a fucking calamity, disgracing ourselves and everything we touch.

This is how we all die.

“The long-dead woolly mammoth will make its return from extinction by 2027, says Colossal, the biotech company actively working to reincarnate the ancient beast.”
