The Wolves We Bring Back: Rewriting Wildness in the Age of De-Extinction

What if extinction wasn’t the end but a choice?

Thousands of years after the dire wolf vanished from Earth, science has found a way to bring it back. Not through fantasy or fiction, but through real, powerful tools like CRISPR, cloning, and ancient DNA. But just because we can resurrect a species, should we?

In The Wolves We Bring Back, Rita C. Sanchez takes you on an unforgettable journey through the wild edges of science, ethics, and imagination. You'll meet scientists racing to revive lost creatures, Indigenous ecologists asking us to tread carefully, and the first generation of children growing up in a world where extinction is no longer final. Through vivid storytelling and clear language, this book explores not just how we might bring back the dire wolf—but why we even want to.

Whether you're fascinated by genetics, passionate about conservation, or curious about the future of nature itself, this book will challenge your thinking and stir your heart.

The future is wild—and it’s ours to shape.
