Growing up as a kid, Jurassic Park was one of my favorite movies. It still is. The thought of an amusement park full of real dinosaurs to see is a great fantasy. It is a great dream without the part about the dinosaurs getting out of the cages and attacking us. That part can stay out. Well I'm here to unfortunately say, science has told us that that dream can only remain a fantasy and never a reality. In a recent study published in Nature it says that all DNA deteriorates at about the same rate and that rate to be a half-life of 521 years. Even preserved in amber, it deteriorates fully in 1.5 million years. Last dinosaurs was extinct 65 million years ago, so bringing them back looks to be totally out of the question. Sorry for the bad news guys.

except this experiment was in a specific environment.

I'm sure the amount of time would differ based on the environment the bones are buried in (which the original article actually comments on, including the potential effect of what time of year the animal died in). My guess is in a cold environment the degration likely slowed down even more...the question though is whether it could have slowed down that much to actually allow for DNA to survive...probably unlikely.

At least they should still be able to do a Mamooth which would be cool on to itself

Another reason why it can't happen is because plant life has changed alot in 65 million years and an exact copy of a palnt-eating dinosaur would not be able to digest the plants of today, kind of like what happened to the Triceratops in the first JP movie.

Also, if they somehow found good dinosaur DNA, there would be too many gaps to fill in.

Dinosaur's will never come back but i don't doubt one day someone will be available to develop some thing more along the lines of ''Theme park Monsters'' which could give us some thing close in appearance.

Still i would have paid out every cent i have to see a Tyrannosaurus Rex alive today.

Maybe it will be like the end of the movie A.I. Artificial Intellegence, when those organic robots could only bring back someone or something using DNA, but only for a day. Oh yeah bitches I saw that movie.

I personally think the tools and the means are out there for us to do this one day. Over the last 20 yrs or so they've found several dino soft tissue samples from duck billed dinos and T rex dinos - which in and ov itself boggles the mind when taking into account mainstream sciences presuppositions

However, this is not all bad news, this doesn't stop scientist from bringing back Mammoths, Saber Tooth Cats, Dire Wolves, Cave Bears, Giant Sloths, Dodo Birds, Tasmanian Tigers, ect ect ect...

Science Fiction is just a precursor to Science Fact. Yep.

Dino robots would be cool but we would never know exactly their color, habits or habits. Remember when we thought T-Rex was a predator and not a scavenger. I haven't given up hope. Maybe a Dino that drowned in a tar pit, got immediately covered by tons of ash from a meteor fallout and immediately got frozen from an ice age?? Ok ok before you guys rip on me... I just don't want to give up hope yet ok? So sue me?
