    “This marks the first successful de-extincted animal.”

    Wikipedia has a more sober take: genetically-engineered grey wolves. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Romulus,_Remus,_and_Khaleesi&oldid=1284569899

    The woolly *mice* they made as prototypes are adorable. Girl Genius style mimmoths are next.
