They are, in the words of the company’s chief animal officer, “the first dire-wolf cubs in 12,000 years.” To make them, Colossal harvested DNA from a tooth thought to be about 13,000 years old and a skull estimated to be more than 70,000 years old. Scientists then compared that DNA with DNA sequences from gray-wolf cell lines. The gray wolf is the dire wolf’s closest living relative—they share 99.5 p

The wolves’ reëmergence piqued the interest of the filmmaker Sebastian Mulder. His 2023 short documentary
