Reminds me of Atlas Pro's video a few years ago on Pleistocene Park in the far reaches of Russia. They did something similar with introducing large, grazing herbivores to the area. And I believe it's helping the ecosystem out. I'll look for the video.

Those people want to bring back mammoths which is bad ass.

Have they seen Jurassic Park? Seems like a bad idea, but I'm no scientist.

Dinosaurs are way older than mastodons. Humans likely contributed to mammoths extinction. And they were keystone species in their ecosystems. But resurrecting them we could make arctic regions much healthier.
