Creature · ICARUS 3.0.26 · Week 248
Revived ancient earth species. A well preserved sample was found deep in the Le Brea tar pits, the first few mammoths were carried by elephants as surrogate mothers. Due to significant debate on the ethics of the mammoths revival, the experiment had to be conducted on Icarus.
Extremist group TPS was responsible for the organisation of global protests against the revival of this species. While this study was not the most advanced genetics experiment, it became a pivotal reference in arguments against genetic augmentation. A slippery slope to experimentation on humans.
"While we appreciate new technology that allows us to maintain a healthy ecosystem, the potential of this technology being used unethically... more than likely it already is used unethically. We deserve better, you deserve better." - TPS Spokesperson
