of reasons. Firstly, we do not know if this species will survive when the birds begin to live in the nature. The nature as we know today might be coded in a very different way compared to the nature more than a century ago. Secondly, there is never a guarantee that the passenger pigeon will be the same bird when it is brought back to life through some genetical modifications, because the conditions surrounding these birds will not be the same. Thirdly, we do not know if these birds will survive and whether they will have positive or negative effects of the environmental situation surrounding them. For instance will there be a risk of extinction for other animal or plant species if passenger pigeons survive. Lastly, the step to revive passenger pigeons will not be realised in line with natural evolutionary process. As a result, the inclusion of the species artificially could harm some natural evolutionary processes. Although I do not support the idea for passenger pigeons, there is more space for the same idea when certain species are really needed for survival of human beings or other life forms. So, I am looking forward to see the results of this project, despite the fact that I do not support reviving passenger pigeons.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14287561657883009049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22484305.post-56317047760856953062014-03-29T22:46:35.121-04:002014-03-29T22:46:35.121-04:00Reintroducing a species to the wild that was once ...Reintroducing a species to the wild that was once extinct is controversial at best. Many, if not most, of the natural life has been eradicated with the massive expansion of the human species. From the massive industries based on the trade of fur and hides, the use for whales and there oils and bone, for birds for food, etc., man has plundered the natural world in an irreversible way. Many species can not escape the philanthropic extinction. The question is of the importance of having a bio-diverse natural world. Introducing the pigeon back into the wild would only cause a more biodiverse ecosystem, and would restore some balance and stability to these natural systems. Humanity can either continue to consume the natural capital (in the case living animals), or move to the preservation of biodiversity in the wild.

It shows how far science and technology has come in the modern world. However, I do not see how bringing back these Passenger Pigeons is in anyway going to help the environment. There have been many other species of birds such as the famous Dodo Bird which became extinct, yet we don't see anyone taking the effort to bring those back with the use of DNA and specimens, so why are these birds in anyway different? <br />The behavior characteristics of these pigeons seem to be reckless enough that even if the scientists after all their years of research and practice will eventually end up wiping themselves out again. Also, from the article, I understand that the only reason they could afford to behave like that is because of their vast numbers so bringing them back would be in smaller numbers and thus the rate of survival will be minute. <br />Theres also a question of adaptability. Will the birds be able to survive in the present conditions that were different to when they were still in great numbers? <br />I think there's a lot of factors to consider when talking about bringing a creature back from the dead and also the necessity of bringing the pigeons back. <br /><br />Apoorva MuthukumarApoorvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03223074182530234551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22484305.post-2822534573803635392014-03-28T17:55:01.090-04:002014-03-28T17:55:01.090-04:00What this article fails to ask is why. Why should...What this article fails to ask is why. Why should we bring back an extinct bird? What purpose does this serve other than allowing people to meddle in things that they don't know about. Let's say that they do De-extinct the passenger pigeon, then what? Their habitat is no longer the same and they went extinct for a reason, so wouldn't that happen again. Even if they didn't go extinct quickly and were able to survive, what would the repercussions be. Would they change their ecosystems and have negative effects? Yes I think that it is impressive that humans have the technology to be able to bring back species or something very similar to an extinct species, but I do not understand its purpose. Is it supposed to make people feel better? I just don't understand it.

Humans destroyed the habitats of these birds like we have so many other creatures and now we are trying to right our wrongs with the same technology that put us in this position. If we had lived sustainably and responsibly within our limits we would not need to spend time trying to bring creatures back. Instead of spending money and manpower on bringing creatures back into a world we have made unlivable for them we should put our efforts into rehabilitating the destroyed habitats of threatened and endangered species.<br /><br />-Haylei P.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22484305.post-81245841951427311032014-03-27T11:01:51.016-04:002014-03-27T11:01:51.016-04:00Before reading this article I did not know de-exte...Before reading this article I did not know de-extenction was possible. This is remarkable, as I would think anyone would agree, however, the second half of this article convinced me it is not a plausible plan. The nesting problems seem to be the downfall of this particular species. The population would not be anywhere the same as it was pre-extinction and if it is that easy for predators to get to the eggs, this species will never achieve the population numbers it previously had. The ecosystem has changed since passenger pigeons were a thriving species and I think it is naive to think that they can be reintroduced to the world without any negative impacts.

It is remarkable in every sense however I don't thing anything good would come as a result. The reintroduction of the carrier pigeon has little hope in my eyes. Those birds resulted from thousands of years of evolution by natural selection. A process completely relying on the current surroundings and environmental pressures. Sticking an animal in a new environment will only cause a second extinction. This could be true for the carrier pigeons or other species due to over consumption by the carrier pigeons. Fixing the damage we have done must be done in a natural way without the disturbance of man. I believe any other method would only complicate and greatly disturb the current web of life. I am greatly enthused by the thought of seeing species I have yet to see however the risk in my eyes is not worth.<br /><br />Dillon AddonizioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22484305.post-83662900063570024622014-03-25T17:01:08.864-04:002014-03-25T17:01:08.864-04:00It’s pretty astonishing that something such as ext...It’s pretty astonishing that something such as extinction, thought of as irreversible and permanent, might now in fact be able to be reversed. Although it would be an amazing scientific breakthrough to be able to bring an extinct species back to life, the idea of de-extinction raises far too many concerns for me to be onboard or support it this early in its development. The idea that scientists would be genetically modifying a dead species and creating a sort of new hybrid that is not the original animal seems a bit risky and dangerous to me. Also besides the process being extremely expensive and time consuming my biggest concern would revolve around creating a sustainable environment for the relived species. In my opinion a species should not be brought back until we can ensure that they will be released into a viable environment. Would it be cool to see a wooly mammoth or passenger pigeon in the zoo? Sure. But it’s not fair and I think the entire process would be a complete failure if they would be bringing back certain animals just so that people can watch them like some sort of freak show. <br />Although I seem to have shifted more towards the cons involved with de-extinction, I am not entirely against it. I am still very impressed by the idea/process; I just don’t see it as being a completely necessary one. <br /><br />Gina MayAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09345952275158200281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22484305.post-50308636439338715062014-03-22T22:25:26.490-04:002014-03-22T22:25:26.490-04:00Personally, I don't see the need of bringing t...Personally, I don't see the need of bringing this species back into the wild. There was a reason that they went extinct in the first place, their species did not have the skill enough to stay alive in the wild, so why do we feel the need to bring them back? To me, it is survival of the fittest, and species extinction is part of the process of evolution. Unless humans, by deforestation or other causes, cause an organism to go extinct, I don't feel like there should be a stress on bringing that organism back. <br />As a side, if we release thousands upon thousands of these bred animals into the wild, who can say that we wont interfere with the natural processes of nesting in ecosystems where species already exist? It could lead to other problems in other species that may lead to extinction on another end. Like the article said as well, the reason that they survived was because there were so many of them, and if we cannot even create enough of them to give them a fighting chance, what is the point?<br /><br />Leanna MolnarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
