Can we get rid of this "Dire Wolf" project?
With the recent news that Dire wolves were quite distantly related to wolves & other canids. This project just seems rather superficial compared to other projects, which is using animals from the same species. Can't forget the environmental & conservation uses of these projects. To avoid an edit war, I hope to see any reason why this should be listed. Monsieur X (talk) 10:28, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
Selective breeding
The Selective breeding section should be removed. Neither the quagga, nor the aurochs nor the European wild horse have been "resurrected" by selective breeding. There is already a page for "breeding-back". DFoidl (talk) 12:18, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
Cloning
The only species to go extinct twice, the Pyrenean ibex was briefly resurrected via cloning. Unfortunately, the newborn ibex died after a few minutes due to a birth defect BBres96 (talk) 11:04, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
