There's something ironic about a geneticist using the morphological species concept to characterize these gray wolves as dire wolves because she knows genetically defining them as dire wolves is laughable.
It was a quote singled out during the media frenzy. This time she says: “We at Colossal are happy for them to be called proxy dire wolves. You can call them Colossal’s dire wolves. You can call them gray wolves with 20 edits that make them look like dire wolves.” That would satisfy most critics
