The dire wolf’s evolutionary history spans far deeper than many realize. The oldest confirmed dire wolf fossil, discovered in the Black Hills of South Dakota, dates back approximately 250,000 years.

The dire wolf is back—sort of. Biotech firm Colossal Biosciences used DNA from dire wolf fossils and surrogate dogs to produce three wolf pups. But University at Buffalo biologist Vincent Lynch ...

In order to conduct this so-called de-extinction event, scientists at Colossal extracted DNA from a 13,000-year-old dire wolf tooth and a 72,000-year-old ear bone, and sequenced the genome.

To breathless media coverage, a company called Colossal Biosciences now claims to have produced three genetically engineered pups of the long-extinct dire wolf. Scientific criticism followed fast.
