On Monday, the company, which describes itself as the “world’s only de-extinction company,” announced the rebirth of the once-extinct dire wolf. The Texas-based bioengineering company used DNA extracted from two fossils as well as 20 edits of the genetic code of a grey wolf — similar to a technique used in the movie Jurassic Park, where dinosaurs are brought back to life by using frog DNA to fill in genetic gaps — to bring the species out of extinction.
