Martian Game Reserves

[snip] Presuming we know exactly what it is that we're wiping out, and that it's things similar to slime mold, extensive samples of which are held in laboratories on Mars, Earth and other places, I'd have to come down on the side of letting the creatures go extinct in the wild. I'm somewhat uncomfortable with that conclusion, but perhaps that's appropriate. I'd prefer to preserve them somehow, but not leave them an entire planet as habitat. "Maybe it's something we can transplant...." Sorry, couldn't resist. |
