Warning: Spoilers
Great episode exploring the possibilities of ancient organisms being unleashed due to human greed.

This episode was one of the more scientifically plausible ones as who knows what is hidden deep within nature that we could accidentally unleash. It gives us somewhat of a chilling warning that we should be cautious when we exploit earths resources.

There was a few ironic twists in the episodes as the loggers who cut down trees and found their death by cutting the wrong tree and the eco terrorist fell victim to their own meddling methods.

Happy that mulder and scully made it out alive but I believe this case was out of their jurisdiction as the deaths was caused by nature. I believe they got super lucky and should stick to murder investigations.

Although this episode and the ice episode had similar themes. It still brought further diversity in the x files cases.
