Public service announcement: this is *not* a dire wolf.

It is a genetically modified grey wolf made to resemble an extinct species, so a bullshit company can raise more money for their bullshit projects.

But the Wright Bros flyer could only launch from a rail. It had to be retrieved and rolled back to the starting point.

Alberto's could land in any flat field and take off again.
