In Episode #53 of Season #4, I will discuss the company Colossal Biosciences and it's attempt at bringing back an animal, the Dire Wolf, from it's 10,000 year extinction.  The Dire Wolf DNA is not 100% Dire Wolf DNA but it has some Gray Wolf DNA segments to make the DNA complete.  Because of this, many people are upset that they are saying that they brought back the Dire Wolf.  But this is just the first attempt at bringing back a previously extinct animal.  No one anticipates ever seeing a Dire Wolf running wild.

Your host is Tommy Fowler. I have a biology degree from the University of Kentucky and a high passion for the outdoors.  I am "The Amateur Naturalist".

We will talk about:

• In tonight's episode, I will discuss the company Colossal Biosciences but very briefly.
• I will also mention that the same company has plans on bringing back the Woolly Mammoth in the next 2-4 years.
• I will mention the creation of the Woolly Mouse and why it was created.
• I also mention that there are other animals potentially on the horizon of bringing back from extinction.
