- An intrepid group of butterflies is about to help turn the clock back nearly a century in San Francisco's Presidio. Biologist Durrell Kapan, Ph.D. of the California Academy of Sciences says the butterflies will be replacing a long-lost species called the Xerces Blue that went extinct in the 1940s.

Butterflies are beautiful animals.
Insects
@bluelava4282 yes, insects are animals.
Carbon based lifeforms

I’ve seen this kind of butterfly before. Obviously not the extinct one, but one very similar. They are so beautiful and charming with their blue wings and how they sit and clean themselves. Thank you for fixing what was broken! Keep up the amazing work.
There are many species of “blue” butterflies.
@@haseo8244 Good point. However this video is speaking of about three specific closely related species. My comment was attached to this video so this is the context of my comment. Thank you!
Step one is to restore the habitat with the indigenous native plants. Habitat Restoration is happening all over the Bay Area.
Anyone can volunteer. Repairing degraded native plant communities with other volunteers is socially and spiritually rewarding.
Get involved. You'll love it.
We are all a symbiotic relationship and depend on each other ...love your neighbors, animals and bugs...
Is that why you modify the genes of your neighbors and dogs? To make them look like your old neighbors and dogs who died? This wasn't symbiosis, it was creating Frankenstein's monster without as noble a goal.
@@notchomomma239 Nobody created these butterflies. They simply used DNA to determine the closest relatives of the extinct butterflies.
Butterfly in the skyyyy
I can go twice as highhh
Take a look! It’s in a book…
A Reading Rainbow!
I can see me now sitting on the ABC rug in first grade(1995), watching this with my classmates. Some of whom I’m still friends with to this day!
I can get twice as high 😂
So they didn’t actually bring those specific butterflies back. They just replaced them with something else. Cool
The closest relative but yeah.
Didn't read the title, eh? 😂😂😂
@@virg0_lem0nade I read the title,whichis nonsensical. If a species is extinct it can't be brought back, because it's extinct. We haven't begun recreating unique species, best we can do is a hybrid with some of their genes.
So the title is inherently nonsensical. Your appeal to it, equally so
Quick proof that God is real: if there is a building that you see, but you don’t know who built it, then the logical sense is to assume that a builder built it, and it didn’t just show up out of nowhere. If there is painting, then that’s proof that there’s a painter who made that painting even if they have passed away a long time ago. So, if we have creation- Earth, the sky, grass, flowers, animals, us, etc, then isn’t the logical sense to assume there is a creator?
Have you ever used God’s name in vain-like a cuss word, lied, stolen, hated someone, gossiped, lusted, etc(see more in the 10 commandments)? This is called sin and we’ve all done at least one of these. Now, sin is basically doing something against God’s will. Now because we have done something against His will, it’s good to note that He is Just. A JUST judge wouldn’t look at a guilty criminal and give them a non-guilty verdict for what they’ve done. And if the Judge is Just, they wouldn’t let the criminal go if they had said that they had done something Good. Our actions are way more serious and cannot be paid off of just because I did something Good. (So good works cannot save us) This is exactly How God is! He’s so just that He looks at us, and He has to send us to hell. Scary right? But HERE’S THE GOOD NEWS!! Usually, there is bail- a payment that someone can do for a guilty criminal so that they can be set free- legally. Now here’s JESUS, who is GOD and takes our place for us THROUGH DYING ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SINS- to basically pay off the price that sin created. See Romans 6:23, but here’s what Jesus did: John 3:16, Romans 4:25, 2 Corinthians 5:21 AND
Romans 10:9-10
If we believe in Jesus and repent (turn away from sin) then we will be saved from our punishment. But we must continue this relationship with Jesus!
Kinda like they did with the grey wolves in Yellowstone.
This is humanity at its best💖
Its nice thay butterflies still have housing.
The Silvery Blue attact and strategically destroy anything in their way between a hot sun and a bottle of gatoraid, they have been know to mimick the behavior of the Monarchs gang in that show the Venture Bros, just for a taste of that sweet sweet juice of Gatoraid.
Shit's gangsta, son
Do you suffer from dementia?
That’s fantastic!
Gatorade: its what butterflies crave
Lol I know right. I never knew they like Gatorade.
That's so cool. I remembered reading about hearing a species can come back from completely extinction. How some species evolved to their environment taking on the exact extinction species.
They're gone. Their genome can't be recreated. You can introduce a precursor genus, but even if every condition was identical to the conditions during their original evolution they'll still end up different due to chaos. Once it's extinct it's gone, even genome cloning requires a host whose genome contaminates the clone. We will NEVER have a wooly mammoth, the best we can hope for is a wooly African elephant
❤🦋 We are all connected.🦋❤
They Should start this in the Tenderlion. A whole bunch of invaisive species moved in and really stunk the place up...
That's so exciting...and an awesome endeavor!!! Thank you for your conservation efforts!!!
Fly, be free. 🌈
Amazing! Now do this with T-rex 🦖
If they were do this with T-Rex's closest living relatives like they did with the butterfly, in a place where T-Rex lived, then they would release a bunch of chickens in Texas. Sounds easy.
I second this proposal very hard.
We got to do this In Florida
The apocalypse in 50 years can be traced to this moment here. Penultimate butterfly effect.
😂😂😂😂
@@sexgod6909 lol I'm a little dramatic I suppose 😂
Oooo this is VERY cool!!!! Introducing a new species is always nerve wracking, but this is so clever and well researched (and low risk lmao butterflies don't tend to be invasive *too* easily, which is part of the cleverness) This is an incredible way to potentially replace keystone species that are already extinct. I hope it's successful and that we can have similar future successes in other areas! As a hobby conservationist living in Cali--this is really nice to see!! Ironically i actually see a lot less well researched conservationism here in Cali than i did in Florida lmao
I wanna see a project that introduces normal people to California to replace the woke idiots
Thank you for bringing these beautiful butterfly’s
❤Thank you for bringing some sunshine to this see of despair❤
that's so sweet
Every life deserves a place in the universe.
2:08 Butterflies “Good Soup”
...but it's not the same species...the closest species. It's an introduced species.
So? they are cousins. The distinction between a variety and a species is somewhat arbitrary anyway.
@@GH-oi2jf I think of it like replacing extinct humans with an altered chimp. Cousins for sure but not the same.
It looks more like a moth too
Where's the sound? I wanted to know about these butterflies, darn it.
I was hoping they used crisper to make the original butterfly genes
Should bring back the brown 🐻
Yay!
This is the most wholesome thing I’ve seen on the news recently.
Butterflies are beautiful important to our survival pollinators Without them we would starve
I love all the types of small azure butterflies!
I think it's sad people don't understand, that conservation efforts are for our own benefit. It's the best most "selfish" thing we can do.
Am I the only one taken back that these little guys drink Gatorade? 😂
Bring on the rewilding!!!🙂↔️❤️
"Life finds a way..."
Beautiful 😍🙏💃🏻 x
Isnt this the butterfly that has a caterpillar that can mimic ant larva and eat them?
Butterflies yes, dinosaurs no.
You can give butterflies Gatorade...?
Gatorade is just water, sugar, and salt. These are all things that butterflies seek out normally. Sugar water from flowers and salts from sweat, carcasses, dung, mud puddles, etc.
There’s a new mosquito in the US as well.
i hope they dont become deadly
So unless genetically engineered to life, it never was extinct....
the butter fly effect
Now they're going to cause hundreds of hurricanes and tsunamis in southeast Asia and India. Thanks a lot, scientists! 🤓
Extinct or extirpated?
Seems like alot of blues are restricted to dune habitat and host plants, also giving then GMO Gatorade seems kinda.......dumb. lol. Idk but shouldn't that be considered a potential contamination.
Society loves butterfly but hates moth. Its so funny.
Best of luck to the little guys.
Bad idea to introduce Franken butterfly into the wild. It's not the same species. There will be unintended consequences that won't be known until later.
At least there trying.
This will literally cause the "butterfly effect"!!
Can it clean all the poop and drug needles on the streets?
👏👏👏🦋✨🌎
Love it
So damn cool
❤
People playing god
💚
LOL that's what SF needs!!!! This will fix Everything!!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rhyming like a fairytale for children.
💛💚💙💜❤
🥰👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This isnt going to end well.
They are only feeding the spiders
Spiders gotta eat don't they.
yet we are closing universities left and right
I’d be interested to see them catch a pack of invasive coyotes on the east coast and put them over there and see how the gap in genetics affects the health of the subsequent crosses as the pack splits
😂😅
Half of the humans are bad and half of them are good.
Who is Who?
@@Semper_Iratus I can't recognize who is bad and who is good
@@Semper_Iratus There in lies the rub..
@@nicolasnicolas2801That’s the rub homie..
Most humans are perfectly decent. However, you’re a simpleton.
What on Earth is "aclimated" ? Did yo mean "acclimatised". (Americanese: "acclimatized").
"become accustomed to a new climate or to new conditions."
You are clearly a cunning linguist.
It's not hard to look it up.
@@justmejenny7986 when he misspells "acclimated" it makes it slightly more difficult. 🤪
IMO,
There is no such thing as "restoring"/"conserving" if the Jurassic Park method is utilized. Its a completely new organism being introduced.
This is like the literal "butterfly effect".
Introducing a completely novel species, in terms of genetics, will have profound and unpredictable effects, especially over a long enough timeline.
Go head, act as a god but with the knowledge and foresight of a goldfish or maybe a pug.
smh
@2:21 It really bothers me when they reintroduce these animals with collars or other devices permanently attached to them. That is not how they naturally live and is probably impacting them in ways we aren't privy to yet.
What could go wrong? 12 breeding pairs of Starlings were introduced into Central Park and now they're everywhere as parasitic nesters.
Starlings were not native to the area they were introduced in.
A coyote flipped our dog over a fence by the neck and tried to drag it into the underbrush. We live in Palo Alto. Are they insane? One single coyote grabbed our dog by the nape of his spine before he could bark, and broke his neck by flipping him like a rag doll through the air. We paid multiple thousands of dollars to save him. This is where selfie culture collides with logic and ethics as the temperature cooks the plants yellow, we introduce fragile life?
You need violent predators to not have eco systems collapse. People made the mistake with wolves decades ago.
what
Yay! Lab created butterflies! Dinosaurs next
No. Watch the video again. The tested dna to get the most similar species they could that already exists and is not extinct.
No matter what they do, they can't return the area to what it was 100 years ago. All they are doing is creating a monstrous theme park amidst human sprawl.
Good thing nature is naturally a beatiful theme park with imense diversity.
I'm glad they're restoring some part of nature instead of being bound with lifeless lawns. Plus, if one personally wanted to, they could bring nature into their own yards and expand that "theme park"
A hundred years from now, it will be like it was a thousand years ago.
You must be fun at parties.
Wow! America is damn near about to go to war and we are talking about ……..butterflies. Who’s paying these people?????
Everything does not stop just because something bigger is going on.
I’d prefer to hear about something other then war thank you very much
We need to introduce lions to eat some tent-tacos
SF focusing on butterflies? So much for the human insects.
Very wrong ive seen these before ! San Diego has a crap load of those 😂
GFREAT! THOSE BUGS KILLED MY FAMILY!
