Company behind dire wolf de-extinction discusses animals with MHA Nation leadership
The idea of bringing back an extinct animal sounds like science fiction — but it’s happening. Using ancient DNA and modern gene editing, a Dallas-based company has bred three pups modeled after the legendary dire wolf. And a piece of that story might lead back to North Dakota. Leaders from the MHA Nation are in early talks with the company, exploring the animal’s cultural significance and potential role in tribal history. For now, the pups are growing up on a private preserve — but their story is just beginning. Joe Skurzewski with KMOT has the local connection to an emerging global story.
