It's a gene edited grey wolf. This is disappointing, Time.

While I think this is amazing, it 's also questionably ethical. What role do these revived species serve? Are they here for our research and amusement, like the last Tasmanian tiger? What other species are next? Wooly mammoths? What about dinosaurs? What about Neanderthals? Should we do it?

Is this the thread for Jurassic Park memes? It's about to be...

@time.com these aren't direwolves and you're proving yourselves to be unethical fake journalism. @moderation.bsky.app why do you keep allowing bs misinformation like this? You're getting to be as bad as the crap over on X. So much for @bsky.app standing up to the oligarchs and being truthful

It's not bringing back extinct species. They just modified a few genes of a grey wolf. That's not bringing back a dire wolf. Even one of the geneticists leaved the company when they published this travesti.

Omg this is cool!!!!!

These dire wolves look so similar to White Swiss Shepherds.

It's not a Dire Wolf. Stop saying this. It's a regular wolf with a few genetic modifications. Stop promoting this as the restoration of an extinct species. It's just not true.

Great story! They brought an ancient creature back using DNA and they named the youngest one Khaleesi. 🐺

"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."

Really? Time editors believed these descriptions were appropriate for these choices? Or you’re actively trying to undermine your own journalistic cred? bsky.app/profile/dere...

It's all fun and games until the Stegosaurus escapes from the neighbors garage.
