Heavens, no! Grey wolves are flourishing in Alaska, Canada, and the western States like Idaho and Washington. In fact, in Idaho hunters were recently allowed to hunt and kill grey wolves because the wolves were rapidly depleting the Elk herds. The greys also kill far too many sheep and cattle, costing farmers much money.
Sadly they ARE extinct in the WILD.

There are gray wolves in other states, such as Minnesota which has the largest population of wolves. A successful reintroduction program has been done in Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming.

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. Additionally, dire wolves had different dental structures, reflecting their specialized diet, which was distinct from that of gray wolves.
