Cloning Endangered Species: A Hope for Genetic Diversity and Ecosystem Restoration

Science Kids Cloning Endangered Species - Pros and Cons The video discusses the potential of cloning technology in preserving endangered species and restoring ecosystems. By introducing genetic diversity through cloning, scientists aim to combat inbreeding and genetic mutations in small populations. The Frozen Zoo at the San Diego Zoo, with genome samples from 10,000 species, represents a valuable resource for future conservation efforts. Additionally, advancements in cloning and genetic engineering offer hope for not only saving individual species but also revitalizing entire ecosystems, such as coral reefs, in the face of environmental challenges.
