I was in downtown Nashville the other night, walking to the Ryman for a John Prine tribute show, when a young woman shouted at me from one of the beer buses, "Dad! What are you doing here?"

To us, animals aren’t numbers in spreadsheets or returns-on-investment; they’re living, breathing, playing things that signal revival.
To us, three new wolf packs playing in the sun in Colorado is a moment to celebrate. And we celebrate every win!
So, when you ask us why we fight, this is why.

Dire wolves were not close relatives of gray wolves. They last shared a common ancestor more than 5 million years ago. What Colossal has done is make something new and slapped a dire wolf sticker on it, as if an organism equals a hypothetical genome.
