Yet another time some tech Bro thought of a clever but totally overpromising marketing fad for absolute idiots that will get someone hurt or killed because none regulates things there properly.
Just like these pseudo high tech cars with...what was it called? An "autopilot" that doesn't actually autopilot and is worse than what cars offered before it and is still worse than what an basic Skoda, Seat or Renault can do? Heard their CEO was into Ketamine was well....
A note that they did not resurrect the dire wolf.
Their marketing department says they did.
What they did was create a new subspecies of grey wolf that outwardly resembles a Dire wolf.
The two species diverged between 2.5 and 6 million years ago.
Six million years ago we were orangutan like apes living in trees and Chimps/Bonobos were too. 2.5 million our ancestors were Homo Habilis.
I’ve seen Jurassic park what’s the worst thing that could happen?
Canus indominotus?
Some fat tech bro could wind up killing everyone by turning off the security system 🤷🏻♂️
Pretty sure Hammond was the villain. The tech guy was underpaid and overworked.
Honest movie trailers nailed that one. Spends billions to make dinosaurs and a place to keep them, and can't be bothered to pay his main IT guy 6 figures to keep the place running.
Nuh uh uh you didn’t enter the secret code
I always quote this if someone asks me for something without saying please.
Nah, if it turns out to be a real problem, humans are REALLY good at extincting megafauna.
But we are in dire need for this wolf.
Sounds like his request for having them in an exhibit was denied
