Dire wolf is brought back from EXTINCTION - 12,000 years after the species vanished
It has been over 12,000 years since the last dire wolves vanished from the Earth.
But the apex predators, made famous by Game of Thrones, are once again growing their pack.
Last year, Colossal Biosciences genetically engineered the first litter of dire wolf pups, bringing this ice age species back from extinction.
Now, the first female dire wolf has finally been introduced to her two older brothers for the first time.
The male pups, Romulus and Remus, are now approaching one year old and have grown to be much larger than grey wolves of a similar age.
The female dire wolf, named Khaleesi after the Game of Thrones character, is just six months old and a lot smaller than her two older siblings.
