Well, like the cave dwelling giant sloth, only one skeleton of a dire wolf has been found. They lived for the most part on the land bridge between Russia and Alaska. One partial skeleton was found on an island off of Alaska, I think it was back in 93 or 94. It was nearly seven foot at the shoulder. It had fangs that are estimated to be 5 to 6 inches long. It was only a partial skeleton sadly, most of the mega fauna skeletons are very hard to get from this part of the world, as they now lie on the ocean floor.

What I would love to see is the bear that they found. Only a partial skeleton, but, this particular bear would have been over 20 feet tall standing on his hind legs. In the flesh, he would have been horrifying!
