Dodo sighting?

To quote Ian Malcolm:

"Yeah, yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should."

Instead of trying to make Frankenstein animals the focus should really be on preserving the habitats and such so that what we currently have can survive. In the end it will come back to humans anyway, whether or not they want to believe it.

I do not share Dr. Ian Malcom's sentiments on genetics (I'm actually in direct opposition to it and lean closer to John Hammond's ideals but without the mistakes or dramatizations).

The objective should be to do both at once, not one instead of the other.
It can even be argued that not doing the former prevents our ability to do the latter, simply because to preserve an organism effectively, you have to both mass produce them, and understand them biologically, otherwise you lose many of them to habitat loss as human population expands, or do to poaching, or natural disaster, etc...
Wild population / habitat preservation attempts alone in most cases has failed thus far because the odds of success are very poor with how we currently go about it.

We are never going to run out of cats or dogs because we make so many of them and so many versions of them.
Lets do that with rhinos.

Lets make some exceptions.

At the very least, let's make it so we aren't the sole, and direct, cause for so many species going extinct because we took away the mere possibility for them to be able to survive.
