Say you found an antique car part. A really cool hood ornament from a currently non-existant Diremobile. You found a list of parts and pictures. You borrow (splice in) parts of various other cars, new and old. You even manufacture parts that no longer exist because the metal, and other materials were inferior to the modern replacement materials. You cobble all the parts from various sources, like a demented Dr Frankenmechanic, start it up, attach the hood ornament. Have you really "resurrected" an authentic Diremobile? Or just a replica.
The successful combining of a viable Direwolf egg and sperms will produce a Direwolf pup. Splicing genes with a few Direwolf genes, like Dr Frankenstein splicing various body parts to produce a person. At least the good doctor used all parts of the same species.
NO such thing (yet) as de-extinction. What do you think?
