You know, I think that kind of tells you something. I don't think if they'd been doing this in Bess Shapiro's old lab at the University of California, Santa Cruz, he'd have thought it was as much fun, you know, as movie making. I mean, I give Colossus a lot of credit And Ben Lamb, in particular, a lot of credit for meeting people where they actually are.

I mean, all I can say is a journalist, someone who writes about people, and I have written about conservation other times, other places. I am not opposed to the idea that if you're ever actually going to turn around this massive environmental disaster that is the present, you really got to meet people where they are.

You know, never say never, but I think they're expected to live out their lives. I think a wolf gets the same 15 years, I think, that a smaller dog gets. Live out their lives. You know, they will not hunt. They will be given, like, I don't know if you've ever been to a zoo and seen what they feed the lions and tigers. They feed them, like, something they would have hunted, but they didn't hunt it.

Like, just oozing, bleeding food. massive amounts of meat. And I think that's what the dire wolves are going to get. But they're not planning to breed them, which I don't entirely understand. Colossal talks a lot about like reintroducing some of their animals into the ecosystem to do environmental good. I don't think the dire wolf was conceived by them with that as a possibility.

Yes. Yes, I did. It was absolutely, you know, there were a number of sad moments in reporting this piece. I mean, first of all, you have to kind of come to grips with the immensity of the damage that humans have done. and for how long we've been doing it, because the dire wolf is essentially driven extinct mostly by human activity, you know, 14,000 years ago.

But I don't know, when you realize that this whole thing is kind of to show we can, Yeah, it becomes sad because isn't one of the reasons that we used to drive animals extinct because we could? Because there was money in it? And isn't it kind of weird that we're now de-extincting an animal, you know, kind of because we now have this...
