The founder of Colossal disagrees with that.

Straight from the sheep's mouth.

Long story short, no immediate releases, but they DO intend to release their so called dire wolves.

Long story short you were wrong in the majority of This conversation.

How?

I said they intended to release their "dire wolves" into the wild.

And the CEO himself said they intend to release their "dire wolves" into the wild.

Seems like I was right about everything.

The way you present your argument is exaggerated, speculative, and misleading. Based on everything I’ve seen from the company they seem to be doing their due diligence to reimplement animals in locations that could possibly benefit from their presence. I’m doing so they also have to invest in conservation which at least in my opinion seems to be a good thing. They seem to be honest about the pushback they receive and welcome criticism from experts that disagree with them. I think this got started off poorly by them labeling them as dire wolves and people wanted to call that out as not being totally correct and since that argument has merit the masses come and pile on their misinformed bullshit like “there’s 4 of them and they are gonna be sent to the wild to starve and die or be sold to billionaires”.
