On HBO's Game of Thrones, direwolves were magical creatures of the north. Turns out, these beasts were once creatures of the Canadian north as well.

Evidence of the direwolf was first discovered decades ago, in an area near Medicine Hat, Alta., where the remains of ice age mammals — such as sabre tooth tigers — have also been found.

But for the direwolf, researchers had very little to go on, until technology finally helped mathematically confirm that a jawbone did in fact belong to a direwolf, making it the northern-most confirmed example of the species ever found.

Global’s Heather Yourex-West has the details.
