For the first time ever, scientists say they have made a species de-extinct, bringing the dire wolf back into the world thousands of years after it died off. Colossal Biosciences, a company based in Dallas,

Colossal Biosciences says it used novel gene-editing technology to alter gray wolf DNA to breed the animals. Dire wolves recently featured prominently in the HBO series Game of Thrones.

Dire wolves, made famous by HBO's Game of Thrones, have been extinct for around 12,500 years. But thanks to genetic engineers at biotech company Colossal Biosciences, these majestic predators are back.

Three genetically engineered wolves that may resemble extinct dire wolves are trotting, sleeping, and howling in an undisclosed secure location in the U.S.

A Texas bioscience firm announced that it used gene editing to resurrect the extinct dire wolf. Here’s what this evolutionary biologist would like to see it work on next.

The dire wolf, made famous in the hit HBO series "Game of Thrones," has been genetically-engineered by scientists in the U.S. after going extinct around 13,000 years ago.

The company that claims to have "resurrected" the dire wolf has its sights set on the woolly mammoth, dodo bird and Tasmanian tiger.

Three white puppies were born in the last six months, each through surrogate domestic dogs who had no idea they were carrying an extinct species.

Scientists working for Dallas-based biotech company Colossal Biosciences claim to have brought the dire wolf, which went extinct about 12,500 years ago, back to life.
