Is anyone surprised by this? I feel like similar things have happened in the past with back breeding

Back breeding? Is that what kim k had to her in the video?

They needed a grabby headline for their sponsors to get excited about. "Multiplex CRISPR gene editing on Grey Wolf" doesn't scream SciFi enough.

Why be disappointed? This wolf died off for a reason. If you brought it back it would likely die off again. Beyond that if you don’t bring back a pack of them then they will be very lonely as they are pack animals.

We’ll have more accurate clones of more recently extinct species. DNA just doesn’t last that long.

Hank Green has a good video on the subject. This is like grafting genes into chimpanzees to make them stand upright and be hairless, and calling them human. There's some cool technology going on here, but it isn't anywhere near a full clone.

UPDATE: It has been fixed. Thank you : ).
