43. The Science of Woolly Mammoths

This week's episode might sound like it's pulled from a Hollywood screenplay - the rapidly moving plan for a resurrection of the long extinct Wooly Mammoth. This week Luke tells us about a fascinating scientific project underway to bring the animal back, and why it's being done in the name of fighting climate change.
