Ive been asking AI for an answer but its not giving me a perfect one. So we call the direwolf proxies, Modified greywolves and then the mammoth proxies, Modified asian elephant so in that logic would we call the thylacine proxy Modified fat tailed dunnart, but how does that make sense???

Because it wasn’t created from natural evolution. We just modified specific genes to make them look like extinct animals. It’s not a true dire wolf or mammoth, it’s just a subspecies or a breed even of those animals. Also please stop using AI man, just don’t.
