“Shame I’m all out of virgins and aurochs. What the hell’s the plural of ‘aurochsâ€� anyway?”
― Max Gladstone, Full Fathom Five

“On a more curious note, there have been historical attempts - some also in current times - to 'revive' an extinct wild form, the aurochs (Stokstad 2015), perhaps an example of the 'taste for the primitive' so characteristic of diverse human endeavors (Gombrich 2002). The case of the aurochs is tied to the Heck cattle and with that to the history of Nazi Germany. It would seem there are better ways to act to restore natural environments.
