I'm quite knowledgeable on things that go bump in the Permian night. Wasn't able to send a DM as yours appear closed at the moment.

De-extinction is the “let’s colonize Mars” for Biologists. Instead of working to fix & be sustainable, its a frat boy mentality that we can just trash it all and science will undo it. We don’t need to change our behaviors because we can control Z it

They sure are! The only birds that reduce how hollow the bones are are diving birds like penguins in order to help with buoyancy.
