In a way they are correct since the dinosaurs in jurassic park were not real dinosaurs like these are not dire wolves since they say the splice genes from lizards and tree frogs to to make them.

They did not bring back Dire Wolves, they made another kind of wolf look like Dire Wolves. The rest of the genetics have nothing to do with Dire Wolves.

Bold of you to assume that the rich corporations that want to make dinosaurs will be responsible enough to put them on remote islands. More like we will be hearing about a breakout of raptors in manhattan massacring the population.

Nah they'll sell them to the military. Biological Ai killing machines

“Crazy how all those raptors got out at the Sanders/AOC rally!” - the GOP and the democrats, probably.

So, half the plot of Jurassic World?

Exactly my thoughts, they'd never be that responsible.

Do we really need dire wolves?

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

you might say they're isn't a dire need for it.

[–] Trollception@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"dire wolves" aka regular gene edited wolves.

[–] the_visitor@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Why do we need it anyway?

Velociraptors were like the size of a chicken and then they'll bring it back with a chicken "mold" and they'll just be like angry bald chickens. Not good, but, like... I'm not Link. I can use shotguns.

They need to be like... Ten times bigger!
