I feel like the megafauna that were eradicated by homo sapiens are fair game to try to resurrect. I mean, they're only gone because cro magnons got carried away slaying furry dragons.
- thghtihadanacct 5y agoI hear ya, its just unfortunate, but come on, a giant rideable millipede? Id trade my zero in less than that many seconds
- _carbyau_ 5y agoI think it'd be cool.. ..but practicality ran the horse out from that role. Compared to your zero the millipede would have... outputs.
- lumost 5y agoIt does make you wonder if the near ubiquitous dragon myth originated from megafauna hunts.
- pantalaimon 5y agoI thought it was dinosaur fossils
- neetrain 5y agoIsn't discovery of giant dinosaur fossils common before the Renaissance?
- bryanrasmussen 5y agothere are other theories https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Flight_of_Dragons_(book) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Flight_of_Dragons_(book)
- jmnicolas 5y agoI have a hard time believing the disappearing of the mega fauna is solely due to homo sapiens: if it was the case there should be a few pockets of them remaining in the world. For example in western Europe bears were hunted to extinction before the middle ages, but you can still find bears in Russia and in the US.
- hulitu 5y agoAnd why would you think we would like to resurect them ? (sorry for considering myself part of the species H. Sapiens) We killed them on purpose.
