Scientists still unable to clone extinct dinosaurs

Science has made several strides in development in the field of genetic science but the scientists have said that the possibility of cloning extinct animals alike the dinosaurs is still a distant possibility.

Experts said that the DNA that would be needed to build a new dinosaur is millions of years old and the samples are not complete. Experts said that the techniques in the movie Jurassic park to possibly bring back the dinosaur is purely fictional. The latest movie on the subject shows that the science might be really be capable of bringing back a living dinosaur.

The new movie goes one step ahead in showing the reach of science and is about the “genetically modified hybrid” dinosaurs and not just recreating the extinct species that existed on the planet.DNA is the building block of life and sometimes animals and plants are buried and preserved as fossils but rarely tissues of fossils can be preserved. But the DNA can be extracted from well-preserved fossils but only a small section of the extremely long DNA molecule are ever found that makes it impossible for the scientists to work to recreate the animals.

The DNA has provide information linking extinct animal to its living relatives but may be too fragmented to provide a full picture.
