Conservation Genetics, Precision Conservation, and De‐extinction [PDF]
Hastings Center Report, 2017 AbstractIt has been estimated that three species on the planet now go extinct every hour and that this rate is orders of magnitude higher than the planet has seen in previous catastrophic extinction events. We clearly are in the midst of a sixth extinction, and this one is different from the previous five. Why?
