So we could get 60ft tall chickens or chicken sized T-Rex. Tough decision, a giant drum stick sounds cool but a tiny dinosaur would make a great pet.

‘There is now nothing to stop us bringing back dinosaurs but ourselves.

'People who don’t believe it don’t know much about evolution.’

Maybe he is right and I don’t know much about evolution, but it seems to me that using the method described in the article (switching on/off genes) you could only recreate dinosaurs in the bird’s evolutionary line.

I can not imagine that there is a bird out there in a evolutionary line from a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

That’s not science. It’s sensational writing at the level of a 7 year old that tells us nothing.

Hello dummy scientists: The message of Michael Crighton’s book is, “Don't do this, even if you can”.

As long as they don't try and clone Jeff Goldblum.
Now THAT would be scary.
