“Colossal Biosciences wants to resurrect the woolly mammoth, the dodo
bird, and the Tasmanian tiger.”

Two responses:

1. I take they never actually /watched the movie/.

2. Locally, there was an ad after /The Hunger Games/ movie turned from
a Spring YA film into a megamovie asserting that it was going to
organize a "hunger games for real" in a local park. I don't think
anything came of it.

People try all sorts of silly things. If these guys are pumping money
into the economy by hiring people and buying stuff, then there will be
at least /some/ benefit from the effort.

You know, the woolly mammoth was killed off by humans for a good reason.
 Walking through people's forts and homes is a bad thing.
