Scientists have brought back Dire Wolves from the dead in the world's first-ever de-extinction project…
Dire Wolves were large, white-coated canines that disappeared 13,000 years ago, but now three pups have been born back into the world.
The mixed DNA was transferred into donor egg cells, and the embryos put into a surrogate mother. She birthed the three healthy pups in October 2024.
To discuss the news, and whether or not it’s a good idea, guest host Anna Daly is joined by Emma Teeling, Full Professor of Zoology at UCD School of Biology and Environmental Science and Collie Ennis, Zoology Research Associate at Trinity College Dublin.
