    Making a reskin of a gray wolf and calling it de-extinction is like putting on a Piramid Head skin in Fortnite and calling it Silent Hill 5.

      I wouldn’t call a functional genomic equivalent a reskin.

      But yeah I mean you’re totally on point with the not equivalent to de-extinction part.

        It’s not equivalent though. It’s a grey wolf made to look like a direwolf. If they’d crispered a grey wolf into a dire wolf, that would be one thing. This is not that. This is basically a designer breed at best.
