Scientists genetically engineer wolves with white hair and muscular jaws like the extinct dire wolf

  • Colossal Biosciences has successfully revived three dire wolf pups named Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi, marking the world's first known de-extinction of a species that went extinct 13,000 years ago.
  • The pups were created using ancient DNA from fossils and were genetically modified using CRISPR technology to exhibit traits believed to aid survival in cold climates.
  • The dire wolves now live in a 2,000-acre ecological preserve in Texas, with plans to potentially restore the species on indigenous land.
  • Experts have expressed skepticism, with some suggesting the project merely involved genetic modification rather than true de-extinction.
