Is it ethical to bring something back to life?

Recently Russian scientists brought back to life a formerly extinct flowering plant from the ice age (it is healthy and fertile). Perhaps this is not the best example but my question remains, is it ethical to bring something back to life, even if it is just a plant, when nature has on its own accord wiped it out and when we don’t know the possible consequences of bringing something that is pretty much alien into the modern world? Or is better to leave what has faded from this world untouched?
