What? How did I miss this? THE DIRE WOLF IS BACK! A colossal dire wolf species found in China—25% larger than its North American cousin, with a skull measuring over 16 inches. Lived 40,000 years ago and likely hunted massive Ice Age prey. Absolute unit. 🐺❄️ #DireWolf #Paleontology #IceAge #FossilFind

Found a killer shark tooth on my lunch break just north of Denison, TX off Hwy 75!
Still blows my mind how sharp these things stay after 90+ million years in the ground.
