[Colossal Biosciences] has raised over $600 million and carries a valuation exceeding $10 billion.
replyYou're not making a return on that from selling velocirator skeletons. Nor is that sort of money in dodos and maos.
Human cloning on the other hand...
How about a theme park? With velociraptors and other jurassic era animals?
replyI would pay money for that, it would give Disney a run for their money. Throw in some woolly mammoths and sabertooth tigers as well.
replyDisney makes more from theme parks than from everything else combined. Dinosaurs would be better than anything Disney has ever made.
replyIt's been a while since high school biology class, and I can't ask my sister right now, but I don't think humans are born in eggs. What does an artificial egg hatching chickens have to do with cloning humans?
replyArguably humans are born from large, soft-shelled, ambulatory eggs.
replyTechnically speaking, we could engineer it in a way where humans are born from eggs. It would just have to be a very big egg and would also have to continue growing in an incubator after hatching much like chickens rather than the standard womb senario.
reply... probably just easier to grow babies in a tube
I mean, if you can make a velociraptor, the skeleton isn't the bit you'll make money on.
replyAnd I feel like lab grown Velociraptor skeletons aren't going to fetch $10 million. Rarity and something new to study is part of the value.
replySurely the rarity is partially due to the velociraptor skeleton cartel limiting the supply. And really, a velociraptor skeleton wasn't even a traditional engagement gift until they created the demand for it with that advertising campaign back in the day.
replyYeah. Imagine how much you can make on live velociraptors.
