Dire Wolves brought back from extinction

[wildwilderness]

Need to reintroduce the mega fauna they used to prey on.


The main issue I have with their idea on woolly mammoth was the plan to delete the gene to grow tusks. Apparently in an effort to prevent future poaching and “hunting”

I’m waiting for the inevitable comment asking what the minimum caliber and bullet weight for Dire Wolf is.

They are pretty soft skinned according to Legend…
I think anything above .223 and good shot placement is plenty

Well looks like someone may be going to jail, crossing genes or such, oh wait these were {scientist} not a rancher in Montana. crossing sheep. Colossal bioscience ,engineers . hope they release them back east, way back, say New Jersey,
KILLEM all before they put them on the books! spoken from a ranchers prespective.

 

[DillonG]

I’m really hoping that they don’t make short faced bears. Those things were apparently like grizzlies on steroids.

So what do yall think mammoth tastes like?

Chicken

 

[analog_peninsula]

Chicken

More like a cross between bald eagle and spotted owl.

 

[Scott CWO]

Maybe if we reintroduced them in NYC, Boston, Chicago and LA we could save the ecosystem just like wolves supposedly saved Yellowstone from the elk! Bunch of BS that was just shown to be BS.

Beat me to it. That was exactly my first thought.

I reached out to them and oddly they accepted my deposit for an iguana tyrannosaurus hybrid for the pet trade. Will let you know how it goes .

Taste like chicken. I've tried it. A little stringy, almost wooly like.

Well I say bring'em on!!

 

[Sabre]

I'm booked for 2036 for a Dire Wolf, Wooly Mammoth, Sabre Tooth Tiger, and Short Faced Bear package. I'll let everyone know how it goes after the hunt.

Better use a 35 Whelen! Back me up @Bob Nelson 35Whelen

Re-engineering large predators or any of the fawns from that era, not a good idea. Nature wanted them extinct, it should be left alone. What’s next, the great saber tooth cat introduced into the Rockies. Ya, great idea.

Look it up on X, Time Magazine, YouTube or today’s. Joe Rogan. View attachment 677249

From the Dallas-based biotech company:


“We’re Colossal Biosciences, the de-extinction company responsible for bringing back the first animals from extinction. Our dire wolf pups, Romulus and Remus, were born on October 1, 2024. Watch these pups grow up on our YouTube channel. Link in bio.

These two wolves were returned from extinction using genetic edits derived from a complete dire wolf genome, meticulously reconstructed from ancient DNA found in fossils dating back 11,500 and 72,000 years. This achievement is the result of years of pioneering science, tireless innovation, and unwavering dedication.

It marks a major milestone not only for our company, but for science, conservation, and humanity. With the birth of Romulus and Remus, de-extinction is no longer theory—it’s reality. There’s more work ahead, but this moment redefines what’s possible for the planet’s future.”

@Roland Robinson: well if you’re using JOE ROGAN to verify this, how could anyone have doubts?? Also, I think I might be 1% Wolf…on my Father’s side !
It is interesting but not as much as the discovery of King Kong or Big Foot.

@Choupique: ASS (or Chicken?)

If the Dire wolf was reintroduced in these cities, then would they be in Dire Straits?

 

[Tubby’s Canteen]

Certainly wouldn’t be the walk of life if they got lose among the time square crowds

 

[Choupique]

These powers should be used for good, not evil. Bring back tasty critters only!

It’s not nice to fool with Mother Nature.
