    They've been looking for dino DNA for decades. I'm glad they've finally found some viable samples. Hopefully, in another 10-15 years, I'll be able to see my first, living dinosaur.

    I'm ready. Bring it on!!!!

    When Jack Horner dug up the T-Rex, Sue, they found some possibly-viable DNA in her tibia. At the time, it was a breakthrough in paleontology as no one had found any in a fossil that old.

    They need to be careful. Can you imagine the devastation if they were able to combine the DNA of a Velociraptor and a Jack Russell Terrier?

    Sometime I look at Jimmy and think they already have!

    It would be called Indominus Jack.

    Yeah the same people that have pitbulls that maul kids and adults frequently, will be buying Raptors saying they're lovable and friendly.
