Dinosaurs

ok first thing have y'all seen the dinosaur game trailer for next gene systems primal carnage genesis? it looks awesome i cant wait, anyway im a huge fan of dinos i think they are badass and there equal to zombies to me. speaking of zombies some of you may think this is stupid but what if the Apocalypse was not the rising of the dead like zombies but dinos. i like the thought. y'all don't have to start telling me what the bible says or anything trying to tell me thats never possible. i'm just saying i like the thought and think its cool and thought i would share.

Actually bringing dinosaurs back is completely possible. Simple even. If I had to bet, I'd say it will happen at some point.

Jurassic Park made it sound easy

Well it is easy lol. We have already done the process flawlessly with other lifeforms.

Is it just me or did Mass accidently post on this topic? It might of been his 10,000 post so that's probably why he was so quick to delete it! Just wondering.

Yeah, I thought I'd make a new thread with that 10,000th post.

In any case, what I said was something about Jurassic Heart soon being reality, with all the revival of dinosaurs talk.


In any case, I still wish there'd be a Dino Crisis/Resident Evil crossover.

we have already put mammoth dna (sprem) into animals.

That was so out of place and gross that I lol'd.

Dinosaurs, they're the best as those before us. <33333333 As was said with BF3: MORE DINOSAURS. Dino Crises was awesome and so would any new dinosaur-based games.

may be out of place but true lol and they found dinos perfectly frozen in ice, if they could find a way to thow them out we would have dinos.

I'm fairly certain that thowing them out wouldn't work. They're already dead within the ice.

i mean if they had the tech to revive the cells of there body and mind and thow them out at the same time. theres some older movie that has something like that where they thow this guy out with lasers. but i dont remember at the moment.

I have not heard of finding frozen dinosaurs. Could you link to that? Also, all they would need is DNA from them. They don't need to thaw them out or anything. You guys are making it harder than it actually is. All we would need to do is clone them. Easy peezy lemon squeezy.

I really don't think any dinosaur has ever been found frozen. It would be huge news if there was one. It is pretty much accepted that T-Rexs had feathers now as far as I know. Not surprising since modern birds share an ancestor with them.

heres your DNA Nite

Nothing new to this, but this is interesting. I already heard this. But then again, thanks for sharing!

I knew about the mammoth. But those frozen dinosaurs are just fossils. No DNA left there.

You know how sick a mammoth sandwich would be?

what about the bonemarrow? its fossilized yes but dont you think they could get something from that?

Unfortunately, no. I think I heard somewhere that, on average, DNA can only be obtained within like 75,000 years of death. Don't quote me on that, I could be completely talking out of my ass there.

damn that would suck lol im going to look it up and see.

Genetically-reviving a species extinct for millions of years would destroy any ecosystem it ends up released in (either accidentally or purposely) and, if it were an alpha predator like Utahraptor or T-Rex, could result in the deaths of who knows how many people. With human civilization already encroaching too far into the habitats of just bears and wild cats (pushovers compared to the super predators of eons past) and them alone resulting in a lot of injuries, I really don't think recreating these animals would be such a good thing.

Imagine if some bumble by a night janitor resulted in one or more of these running around our forests.

Spoiler:

Or one of these swimming around our oceans.



I'm sorry, but the human race plays God enough as it is. Leave this to the movies.

Well many of these creatures could probably not survive in the wild today.
