The making of the dire Wolf

Apparently an USA company resurrected the dire wolf.
3 specimens are living( for now, i am afraid )in a fenced off area.

There is a great pride in resurrecting of the dire wolf.

I kind of support the resurrection of some extinct animals( like the Dodo bird or the Tasmanian tiger per say ).
They both went extinct at the fault of the modern man.


I am afraid though -they made a wrong selection, brought back a super predator, which went out like 10.000 years ago,at "no ones"fault.


Who needs a super wolf roaming around, with all the threat to humans ,and devastation on wildlife.
Mature Nature will pay price for this.

I am willing to place a bet ,that one day,we will face some "accidentally escaped "and reproducing dire wolf population in the Rockies(for starters).

The plan it to release them , as soon as they have a breeding population.

No disrespect but I think you may have seen one too many Jurassic park movies. Ya no one likes to see someone play god but telling one what they can and can't research is being a little god like. Sure there may be negative consequences but think of the positive ones. A means to control the feral hog epidemic or a control for CWD in an effected area. In any case I don't think the situation is as dire as you may think for as you said mother nature took 'em out once if they are truly doomed or a re-emergence only mother nature will decide.

I don't know, it's kind of a slippery slope talking about keeping humble when it comes to science and technology; where's the limit? Everything has reverberations, to be sure, The Butterfly Effect, and whatnot. I don't see a super predator having a positive effect on local ecosystems, whatever those may be.

Humans included?

The ones they've created they expect to be 63 kg when full grown. 138 lbs. Isn't that smaller than a big gray wolf?

IMO releasing these critters in the wild is dumb. First of all they aren’t real Dire Wolves… just genetically modified to look like them. Secondly, what prey species will these be feeding on. Big dogs need a lot of food to eat. IMO they should be classed as an invasive species.

X2
Better yet, they should be made" legally obligated "that the dire wolf can never breed ...everything else is an irresponsible nostalgia !
Ignoring the facts that the ecosystem changed majorly in the past 10000 years is dumb..........bringing them back will create huge unwanted consequences.

I wrote this back in 2019 - Kinda has a ring of truth now.

News Release
Admission of covert mammal reintroduction
Ontario MNR admits to releasing Cougars, Wild boar and genetically enhanced Dire
Wolves.
April 1, 2019 10:00 A.M.
Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry
Ontario's Government for the People is releasing the pass secret details of the MNR Covert
wildlife reintroduction plan started in 2003.
"We're making it easier for Ontarians to know what was happening," said John Foole, MNR
official. "This year, we tell the truth of what the Liberal Government made us do."
It all began in early spring of 2004. The Liberal Government thought that a long term plan to get
hunters out of the woods would be to release captured Western and unwanted pet cougars to
try and create a viable breeding population. But it went wrong. The population began creating a
highway through Eastern Ontario and killing horses, with this gone wrong the Government
abandoned its idea. The solution was to introduce Wild Russian boars and maybe they could
control the cougars as well come winter the Government thought they would perish.
"Boars are reproducing" said MNR Official Foole. "Hunters are not scared and we need to
control the boars as well as the hunters". The Government decided to pull out all the stops
regardless of the environmental issues bringing back an extinct species, a super predator. We
created and release a genetically enhanced Dire Wolf. This wolf will reach weights of
100-150 kg (220-330 pounds). The first release site was the Bissett Creek area of
Algonquin Park. These Wolves have now wreaked havoc on the critically endangered Algonquin
Wolf leaving less than 3 remaining. Luckily these experiments have been put to an end, but the
damaged has been done. These super Predators the Dire Wolf have been slowly taking over the park.
The MNR is now suggesting all who enter carry a centre fire rifle loaded at all time.

It's not a dire wolf it's a Grey wolf hybrid.

Here we go-as a proof that Human Kind playing GOD unconditionally (and foreseeably) EVERY times backfires.

Founded by their scientists... if we look probably received tax payers money alone with their private company partners siphoning the tax payers for their work.

So I guess nobody wants Scientist to reverse engineer Chickens?
I was really hoping we could, it would be so cool to have Raptors running around Algonquin Park. There goes my dream.:(:moose:

Mammoths maybe??:)

I am not able to find anything supporting above claims online

Just to clarify, are you actually being serious about this ? Or joke (considering April 1 release by John Foole)

I wrote this as a Joke like years ago I think 2019 read carefully and you will see hints that it is a Joke. :)
