In the case of a dolphin, you know, it's a species that, well, they're probably close to our intelligence in many ways and we might not be able to admit that right now, but they live in quite a different environment, and you still have to bridge the gap with the sensory systems.

I mean, imagine what it would be like to really understand the mind of another intelligent species on the planet.

Suddenly, we humans, a recently arrived species, no longer subject to the checks and balances inherent in nature, have grown in population, technology and intelligence to a position of terrible power.

That's why they migrate to cities. That's why in June of this year, we passed, as a species, 51 percent of us living in cities, and bustees, and slums, and shantytowns.

There have been 30 novel emerging communicable diseases that begin in animals that have jumped species in the last 30 years.

And fishing near the surface targets mostly species that migrate between the high seas and country's waters, like tuna and sharks.

And many of these species are threatened because of too much fishing and bad management.

And the ecological benefits would be huge, because these species of large predators, like tuna and sharks, are key to the health of the entire ecosystem.

What I think is important is that, if it's clear that we exterminated these species, then I think we not only have a moral obligation to see what we can do about it, but I think we've got a moral imperative to try to do something, if we can.

We took the eggs of a related species, a living frog, and we inactivated the nucleus of the egg.

What we're trying to do is take a dead nucleus from an extinct species and put it into a completely different species and expect that to work.

But it's a long way along the journey to producing, or bringing back, an extinct species.

It makes me very sad because, while it's a fascinating animal, and it's amazing to think that we had the technology to film it before it actually plunged off that cliff of extinction, we didn't, unfortunately, at this same time, have a molecule of concern about the welfare for this species.

We would hope that we'll be able to get that DNA back into a viable form, and then, much like we've done with the Lazarus Project, get that stuff into an egg of a host species.

It has to be a different species.

I think gradually, as we see species all around the world, it's kind of a mantra that wildlife is increasingly not safe in the wild.

Look, our species is trying to build AGI, motivated by curiosity and economics, but what sort of future society are we hoping for if we succeed?

There have been multitudes of studies with many species over the years that have given us exquisite evidence for thinking and consciousness in other animals, other animals that are quite different than we are in form.

And what you've seen tonight tells you that we should not restrict this network to one species, that these other intelligent, sentient species should be part of the system too.

Now, what's important about what these people are doing is that they're beginning to learn how to communicate with species that are not us but share a common sensory environment.

What that means is that what we're learning with these interactions with other species will teach us, ultimately, how we might interact with an alien from another world.

When I began recording in the late '60s, the typical methods of recording were limited to the fragmented capture of individual species like birds mostly, in the beginning, but later animals like mammals and amphibians.

The usual methods of evaluating a habitat have been done by visually counting the numbers of species and the numbers of individuals within each species in a given area.

I came this close to changing species at that moment.

Some reptiles become birds, some mammals become primates, some primates become monkeys with tails, and others become the great apes, including a variety of human species.

Most species just last for a few million years.

So you see, most life on earth that we see around us today are about the same age as our species.

If you look out on the eight million species that we share this planet with, think of them all being four billion years of evolution.

Now, we all know that wolves kill various species of animals, but perhaps we're slightly less aware that they give life to many others.
