The first Dire Wolf howl in 10,000 years

Quote:
SOUND ON. You’re hearing the first howl of a dire wolf in over 10,000 years. Meet Romulus and Remus—the world’s first de-extinct animals, born on October 1, 2024.

The dire wolf has been extinct for over 10,000 years. These two wolves were brought back from extinction using genetic edits derived from a complete dire wolf genome, meticulously reconstructed by Colossal from ancient DNA found in fossils dating back 11,500 and 72,000 years. This moment marks not only a milestone for us as a company but also a leap forward for science, conservation, and humanity. From the beginning, our goal has been clear: “To revolutionize history and be the first company to use CRISPR technology successfully in the de-extinction of previously lost species.” By achieving this, we continue to push forward our broader mission on—accepting humanity’s duty to restore Earth to a healthier state.

But this isn’t just our moment—it’s one for science, our planet, and humankind. All of which we love and are passionate about. Now, close your eyes and listen to that howl once more. Think about what this means for all of us.

Neato. I guess. But...as stated in Jurassic Park, these animals are not extinct because of deforestation or some human cause...nature CHOSE them for extinction...I dunno. This does not seem like a good idea...

I'm always amazed by the advances of science... but de-extincting animals that were removed by nature seems like a REALLY bad idea... If this is a practice that continues, said creatures need to remain in captivity for research purposes only. Dire Wolves or Wooly Mammoths being introduced into an ecosystem can have SEVERE repercussions.

Not to be a wet blanket, but my understanding is this is a grey wolf with 14 specific genes tweaked to match dire wolf DNA. It's unclear how close these guys are to an actual dire wolf.

Most extinctions are NOT removed by nature but by the advancement of humans along with that hunting, poaching and killing stuff.

They probably did become extinct due to human actions, though. The prey that they relied on started to go extinct and part of that is likely due to humans hunting the same things.

Yeah because humans likely hunted the dire wolves prey to extinction.

Agree 100%. As for keeping things captive, though, how often does that work as intended? I don't trust it. I especially don't trust reintroducing predators.
