Elon Musk has expressed his fascination with Colossal Biosciences' claim of reviving dire wolves through genetic engineering. The company says it has created wolves resembling the extinct species, featuring white fur and strong jaws. Musk shared a video of the cubs on X, calling it 'cool' and expressing his desire for a miniature woolly mammoth as a pet.
'Dire Wolves' Revival: Colossal Biosciences claims to have revived three cubs, named Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi, using genetic edits from ancient dire wolf DNA.
Musk's Reaction: Musk shared images of the wolves and requested a miniature woolly mammoth pet.
Skepticism: A biologist not involved in the research suggests that the company is only creating animals that superficially resemble extinct species.
