Jurassic World has concerned thoughts. Recently, Colossal Biosciences brought back a dire wolf, and it caused a great stir. Even Time magazine put the wolf on its cover, stating that it's back from being extinct. In a tongue-in-cheek reply, the Jurassic World franchise had something to say, most likely what many of us were thinking.

Reposting the same, they wrote:

"We see no possible way this could go wrong."

In case you were still curious, they were talking about dinosaurs returning to life. In each Jurassic Park film, a dinosaur somehow returns to life after it was extinct and wreaks havoc.

Now that scientists have brought back a dire wolf, people couldn't help but make light of other extinct creatures returning to life. They also humorously predicted what would happen if that happened.


Dire wolf returns from extinction—Jurassic World’s hilarious response leaves users in stitches

Picture a world in which dinosaurs actually return—or, in this instance, are brought back by genetic engineering. Would Time magazine publish another cover photo, or would they be too busy running for their lives?

Either way, folks online have already treated us to a preview of what the magazine covers would be like if it were dinosaurs rather than dire wolves.

Just a reminder—these animals can appear adorable in photographs, but things might turn out differently in real life, as per Jurassic World warnings.

By sharing an edited version of the TIME cover, a user helped to dispel any misunderstandings.

Another user showed off their creativity as well by helping out Jurassic World.

Meanwhile, a user probably thinks this is how a modern-day dinosaur would look:

It seems that this is not a good time for Disney since they are getting pulled into everything. This time, folks are jokingly asking scientists to resurrect Walt Disney so the movie franchise of the brand could get attention.

Others are thinking that if scientists continue to resurrect extinct creatures, Jurassic World may soon find it more economical to have an actual dinosaur rather than CGI.

Somehow, Disney caught the strays, with one user, @legendofthedip, saying:

"Let's bring back Walt Disney while we are at it. Maybe we can get some decent movies."

A user, @Antoniopalma__ humorously noted:

"For the next movie, it will probably be cheaper to bring directly dinosaurs to life than to use expensive graphical and animation technologies."

One user, @JohnJohn722, resorted to a pun, saying:

"Dire consequences."

Netizens are joking that Jurassic World has already cautioned us about the dangers of reviving extinct species, but scientists just don't heed the warnings.

Some folks claim that it always begins with the adorable ones, while others respond humorously that the franchise should create more films explaining why this isn't a good idea—although they've already made plenty of those warnings.

A user @neolithicobject jokingly said:

"You've literally warned us for over 30 years and people are still not listening 💔."

A user @off_topicsho put out a humorous warning:

"It’s always starts with the harmless ones."

A user, @GrishordGames, ironically suggested:

"You should make a series of movies about how this is a bad idea."

Colossal Biosciences revived the dire wolf through a unique de-extinction process. You may recognize them if you've seen Game of Thrones, but in life, they roamed during the Ice Age and became extinct some 12,500 years ago.

Dire wolves were larger and more powerful than modern wolves, with a broader head, thicker coat, and robust jaw. They were apex predators in North America, preying on large mammals such as bison and ground sloths.

Scientists think that they became extinct due to climate change and the disappearance of their primary food sources.
