I think they could definitely revive mammoths. Plenty mammoth DNA available and they can use elephants. I’m all for it.
I’d like to see them make one of those giant sloths that were like two stories tall.

how many dire wolves will it take to beat a gorilla in a fight.

What's crazy to me is that the projectile points dating 9k years or older are so much more finely made than newer stuff.
Even crazier, I just read over the weekend an article about how they had just made a discovery in the back of a random cave in Big Bend NP that contained a complete hunter’s kit. They were able to accurately carbon date the pronghorn skinned kit to 9,500+ and inside was a bevy of different sized, still razor sharp spear heads that were perfectly grooved for the shaft that went into the atlatl. I have no idea what the technical term for the projectile that an atlatl throws, but essentially they had the ability to mix and match their weapon points to what particular prey item they were hunting.

I don't know what they can do w/them other than have them at a zoo.
You can't release these things into the wild. They'd either die from being bread in captivity and not being able to handle it or would dominate the region and royally frick up the local ecosystem.

They brought the dire wolf back from extinction and didn't name one of them Ghost?

That groove you describe is pre-planned from the beginning of making the arrowhead and its the last step. Running the long flake for the flute can mess up the entire thing.
There are a lot of comolete spears/darts coming out of snow melt that still have the feather stabilizers intact. It's pretty interesting. The snow is so old it's full of steppe bison/caribou crap. I can't find it but the documentry I watched they used helicopters to find the artifacts melting out of the snow.
I've found two arrowheads here in arkansas that still had petroleum tar binding attached to the base which had to travel up from the gulf.

Younger Dryes took out several bad arse megafauna in North America.

Better than the melanistic long hair French bulldogs or the other 10 variations of frenchies on the market for 5k plus. ( I have working dogs)

Mor cute pictures and this article says there were three puppies. (The third named Khalesi).
I don't know if this photo is real, but I know it's real-ly cute.

I'm curious as to why people think this? I get it if they were going to be released in numbers but that's not going to happen as far as I know. Also, they're not much bigger than modern wolves, these are expected to top out around 150 lbs. You have hundreds of thousands of pit bulls wandering loose around neighborhoods all over the country, that's a far bigger issue than these would ever be.

How long before a sports team is named the Dire Wolves?

Wolves play a vital role in maintaining the balance and structure of their ecosystems. Restoring these essential players is absolutely central to our broader conservation goals.
They got absolutely dragged for this response. Rightly so.

Wolves being detrimental to the ecosystem is vastly overstated by simpletons. Listen to Donnie Vincent sometime, someone who knows what he’s talking about

A magazine named Time date stamped from the future while featuring a wolf from the wayback past.
The future of yesterday is tomorrow’s today.
