the dire wolf went super extinct.
—
Actually, they have revived it - was on TV news the other night - cute fluffy white pups and nice big adults - took 20 bits from Dire Wolf gene and spliced it into a white wolf.
one bite from an adult would either crush your leg or skull, depending on which bit appealed to it.
The article in the Bee was after that article. They trustingly loaned them to Dr Fauci for experiments. They went super extinct.
