Text 4 (lines 20-25) argues against bringing back extinct species by talking about the possible dangers to the environment. Animals that come back to life could become annoying, take over new habitats, or even bring harmful viruses. This could be risky for both nature and our health. Plus, the text points out (lines 5-10) that we should use our limited resources to fix the real problems that cause extinction, like destroying habitats and taking too many resources, instead of chasing after uncertain de-extinction projects.
rephrase like a 8th grader
Text 4 (lines 20-25) further argues against de-extinction by pointing out its potential ecological risks. Resurrected organisms could become pests, invade ecosystems, or carry dangerous retroviruses. This creates new threats to both biodiversity and human health. Additionally, the text highlights (lines 5-10) how limited resources should focus on tackling the root causes of extinction, such as habitat destruction and overharvesting, rather than pursuing speculative de-extinction projects.
