Gray wolves are not extinct. Their conservation status is Least Concern.

Not as a species. They are listed as 'Least Concern" by the IUCN. Some subspecies are in some trouble, like the Mexican and Ethiopian wolves.
No they are not. There are about 200,000 in the world right now.

Dire wolves were larger and more robust than gray wolves, with an average weight of about 110 pounds compared to gray wolves' typical 70 to 100 pounds. They had a broader skull and stronger jaws, adapted for hunting large prey like megafauna. Unlike gray wolves, which are still extant and social animals, dire wolves lived during the Pleistocene epoch and are now extinct.
