How does #plastic degrade into micro and nanoplastics though. This new study shed some light on the topic.

Velvet worms are called ‘living fossils’ as their body plan has remained essentially unchanged for millions of years, predating even the dinosaurs.
Re-discovery of a Himalayan velvet worm thought to be extinct for 111 years. Better than nonsensical claims of "de-extinction". #Direwolf

No, Collosal Biosciences did not "De-extinct" the dire wolf, nor did they do something new. Genetically modified species have existed in the past (even one illegal human trial).
