A U.S. company has taken a step aimed at bringing the dire wolf back from oblivion. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/04/09/world/science-health/us-company-extinct-dire-wolf/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #sciencehealth #genetics #wolves #biotechnology #cloning
Game of #clones: Colossal’s new #wolves are cute, but are they dire?
#ColossaBiosciences claims it has revived an #extinct species, but scientists outside the company are skeptical.
It’s making a bold new claim—that it has actually “de-extincted” an animal called the #direwolf. Inside a preserve roam three striking snow-white wolves—which a startup called Colossal Biosciences says are members of a species that went extinct 13,000 years ago, now reborn via #biotechnology.
