They edited the DNA of grey wolves with DNA from long extinct dire wolves. So I expect its more accurate to say its a grey/dire cross, but still interesting. There are 3 puppies. 2 male, one female.

JMO, but they and all research into it should be destroyedand prohibited.

Covid was just a warning of what can happen when you start playing God with genetics.

yes I agree

they are playing Jurassic park with mamals

they could work on a better cure to cancer with that money and not a new super predator

I guess at least a regular 308win should take down a Dire wolf

Not specifically listed as a protected species, bang.

I think even just a .243 would be fine, but I'd go with a .270 or .308, just in case.

Read most of the article. These people think they are controlling the fate(s) of species. Good luck with that.

A 2,000 acre enclosure surrounded by a 10 foot fence. Sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Are you talking about the dire wolf experiment or Jurrasic Park? I think it could apply to either eek

I'm not a fan of this activity, but thought it would be of interest here.

Think they are also really close to cloning the woolly mammoth. Real good meateater pod cast on the mammoth and dire wolf cloning. Eric

either other than one is a movie and the other is happening , seems like they are playing the same game as the movie

they seem basically the same on a slightly smaller scale

They could quickly kill the dire wolves with drones, in the absurd chance they ever became a problem.

Perfect, I think they should establish the first population of them on Mercer Island (where Bill Gates lives), a suburb of Seattle. Lots of prey species in that area.

nope 9 protests and 7 judges and 14 injunctions , they will claim they are a native species , endangered and we should all offer ourselves as sacrifices to feed and keep them going even though they have been extinct 10000 years
