Science has once again pushed the boundaries of possibility—this time, by reviving a creature that vanished over 10,000 years ago.
A team of researchers has successfully brought the dire wolf back from extinction, reintroducing a lost apex predator that last walked the Earth long before the rise of modern civilization.
The breakthrough comes from Colossal Biosciences, a biotech company that has engineered three living dire wolf puppies—effectively restoring a species whose genetic lineage was thought to be lost forever.
