Colossal Biosciences presents what it calls ‘dire wolves’, extinct for thousands of years

The company Colossal Biosciences has announced the birth of what they call three ‘dires wolves’, Romulus, Remus and Khaleesi, as reported in Time. The puppies, conceived in domestic dogs, were born thanks to genetic engineering techniques and ancient DNA to resemble a species that became extinct over 10,000 years ago.
