The earth is only 6 thousand years old. How can these animals be extinct for 13 thousand years?

Well, Bill, it’s because the world is in fact not six thousand years old, but instead much, MUCH older, to the tune of about 4 billion.
You see, Bill - you don’t mind if I call you Bill do you?, our interpid and sexy hero asked as if this mouth-breather would ever see this comment, or if the hero indeed even cared - you have, for much of your life, been lied to by a human-hating death cult that has long since become addicted to controlling every aspect of your life, and has brainwashed you into going along with them for fear of offending their ‘god.’ In order to better control you, they tell you lies about the universe, it’s age, your place in it, and basic scientific facts, because if they can convince you of magic, then they can convince you to, say, climb a mountain to sacrifice your own child, or slaughter entire nations whose only crime was not going along with your proclamations of sorcery. If they can get you to believe absurdities, they can get you to commit atrocities, and that spreads their control. And probably makes their jimmies stiff, I wouldn’t be surprised in the least.
The Democratic Unionist Party in Northern Ireland are Christian. Very Christian. Indeed: so Christian, they believe the Earth is just 4 ,000 years old.
From their perspective, how can your credibility be extinct for another two thousand years?!
Direwolves are no longer extinct. “Game of Thrones” fans will be pleased. My best friend whose favourite animal is the Wolf certainly is. He has lots of books - some supplied to him by yours truly - about them, which include how they are the genetic basis of all canids: via Evolution we have all the others right up to the Labradoodle in the 1980s. Now this. Like I say, my friend loves these books with all these genetic facts.
And he’s a long -time Christian.

That reminded me of this, from https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DireBeast
“Note that dire wolves did actually exist in real life, though they were only slightly larger than "normal" wolves, and disappointingly, recent DNA evidence has suggested that they were not actually in the genus Canis , nor were they closely related to gray wolves. (Their skeletal structure is very similar to a gray wolf's, though, which is what caused the assumption. It's a result of convergent evolution.)”
Well, perhaps it might be because the Earth alone is FAR older than 6,000 years? Of course, that would require realizing that a single fairy-tale book written before medieval times would not be the most accurate depiction of reality… And that alone is a VERY tall order for some people.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
