The Terrible Wolf is Back, Elon Musk has just ordered the next extinct animal – Pet Wool Mammoth

After 10,000 years of extinction, the terrifying wolf (known for Game of Thrones) how to call again. Colossal Biosciences, a Texas biotech company co-founded by Ben Lamm and Harvard geneticist George Church, claims three living wolves with genetic design similar to the ancient Aenocyon Dirus. Romulus and Remus were born in October 2024 and were subsequently delivered by Khaleesi in January 2025 by alternative dogs. Now all three live in a reserve of 800 acres where they monitor it carefully.

Their resurrection was not done using the direct DNA of the terrifying wolf fossils. Instead, scientists edited 14 genes in gray wolf to express 12 traits found in ancient species. Results: Animals with white coat, muscular hairstyle and a pissy jawline. Although not real clones, these puppies are approximates of Ice Age predators who once roamed America.

In an article on X (formerly Twitter), Collossal declared: “The terrible wolf has been extinct for over 10,000 years. The two wolves were brought back from extinction using genetic editing, which is derived from the genome of the totally terrifying wolf, reconstructed by giants, produced from ancient DNA from ancient DNA, which came from 11,500 and 72,000 years of Fack back back back back back tack””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””

Musk enters the arena: “Please make a mini pet wool mammoth”

Elon Musk never shy away from bold ideas and responded quickly to the news. He shares the cover of Time magazine of a terrifying wolf, the word “extinction” crosses and replaces it with “Remus,” adding a twist to the pop culture: shaping images of puppies lying on an iron throne.

Then there is breaking the requirements of the Internet.
“Please make a miniature pet wool mammoth,” Musk tweeted a stereotypical tweet of mean thinking and Jurassic Park jokes.

It’s more than just an irony. The huge ambition has long been to resurrect the wool mammoth, and Musk’s request involves the company’s already massive PR machine. The company has made real progress. Earlier this year, a giant gigantic breeding of a “wool mouse”, a genetically designed mouse that started with a mammoth. CEO Ben Lamm called it a milestone:

“The huge wool mouse represents our critical point Cast travel. ”

Public Reactions: Dinosaurs, Hippos and Mammoths, Oh, I

Musk’s post opened the floodgates. Social media is full of memes, simulations of Elon Igg’s mammoths and many armchair requests. One user joked, “Please make Jurassic Park”, while another user added “Yes! I’m still waiting for the miniature hippo.”

Even Grok, Musk’s AI Chatbot suggests under the hypothetical mammoth name: “quark”.

But not everyone is charming. Wonders raise serious questions about the ethics of making ancient animals for human entertainment or experiments.

Scientists sound cautious

Vincent Lynch, a biologist at the University of Buffalo, studied evolutionary genetics but was not convinced. He warned not to exaggerate achievements in his speech at the Associated Press: “All you can do now is make something look like something else.”

He noted that despite the claimed huge similarity between the giant wolf and gray wolf genomes, the remaining differences still amount to millions of base pairs and questioned whether the animals were really “backed.”

Others raised ecological and moral issues. Where will these species live because their primitive habitat and prey are long gone? Are we recreating our lives, or are we just a stage bio theater?

From ancient DNA to cold commercialism?

Although science is undeniably impressive, the huge work is also a drama. Iron Throne Photos, Celebrity Endorsements, Memes – They have as much marketing as science. It’s working. The public is involved, investors are interested, and the media focus is exactly what was once the marginal research.

Huge publicly expressing its goals:[We want to] To revolutionize history and become the first company to successfully use CRISPR technology in the extinction of previously lost species. ”

If successful, this could redefine the meaning of extinction, who can reverse it.

Is this the beginning of a designer pet?

Celebrities such as Musk advocate for genetic reproducibility as potential pets, and dialogue is rapidly shifting. Are we going into the future, boutique biology allows anyone with enough money to own a dodo or baby saber teeth?

Currently, the terrifying wolf is how it screams, the mammoth is still in the lab, and the world is watching. Fascinated. Anxious. Awe.
