Topic: Is it possible to create a real live Jurassic Park? (Read 2022 times)

Dinosaur coin.
you are so funny,guys.

Don't get too much brainwashed by the movies. How these recreated dinosaurs can become even more dangerous than some of the fighter jets and nuclear weapons? It will be great to have them.

Eventually, science would be able to recreate dinosaurs by using genes. But I would't recommend it, we literally have 3 movies explaining why that would be a bad idea

How will we find out?

Yes. Godzilla 3D releasing on May 16, 2014. 

Godzilla isn't a robot or a dinosaur is it?

We'll find it out with a new godzilla movie

LOL robodinosaurs. Don't we already have them at Universal studios? lol

In 99% of the zoos, the animals are well cared for and they live for almost twice the duration as they would otherwise live in the wild. In addition to that, exhibiting the animals in zoos bring in the much needed revenue, which is required for nature conservancy activities.

Robotic dinosaurs? Are you joking. What is the purpose? To amuse the children? By bringing back Dinosaurs from the Dead will bring big Pride to humanity that we can do anything. This is a great stepping stone for our civilization.

Robotic dinosaurs are more viable, but anyway cloning dinausers remind me of one of the games I liked the most in my youth aka Dino crisis 1/2 was epic

well we could make a temporary Jurassic Park to prove to the people we could do it.  and then kill off the dinosaurs when they get ruley

Probably not after seeing that film  . Far too dangerous and also very expensive.

I wonder if we had the tecnhology would they actually create a Jurrasic Park?

There's a difference between conservations and keeping animals in crappy poorly run zoos.

Most of the times, but not always. Sometimes, natural catastrophes can also result in species extinction. The best example is that of the Miami blue butterfly, which became extinct after the Hurricane Andrew. Several species have become extinct as a result of historical volcanic eruptions.

Hurricanes Hurting Endangered Species

It depends on what sort of captivity. Some animals would probably be extinct or very near so if we hadn't put some of them in captivity. Of course, the reason they're almost extinct is probably our own fault, but at least some people are trying to correct the mistakes we've made as a spaecies.

It's funny how some people think keeping animals in captivity in a zoo is wrong. Newsflash; wild animals die and suffer all the time. It's tough to be an animal in the wild. They don't have morals or a social security system, their life isn't some happy wild roam of dreams...

Yeah, but they'd also need much more food, and I suspect farming them would be a pretty dangerous task .

Lol free range dinosaurs.

If dinosaurs really taste like chicken then we will farm them!Why to farm 1000 chicken when you can have 1 dino......hahaha

Everybody says meat they've never tried probably tastes like chicken lol.

Jurrassic Park was actually a pretty good book from what I remember (even though I read it as a kid). I'll need to read the follow up.


Maybe he was making a comparison about it being wrong to keep animals in captivity but not to eat them?

Most probably dinosaurs would taste like chicken. Because dinosaurs is chicken's ancestor

Eating dinosaurs?

What load of BS? Sometimes, keeping animals in captivity is necessary to save them from extinction. Check the case of Siberian tigers. There are only around 100 of them out there in the wild. However, the captive population  number around 4,000. If not for the gene pool inputs from the captive population, the tigers might have died out long ago in the wild.

The number 2 problem wouldn't be a problem to them because they obviously not think it as problem. Heck they will even clone the neanderthal. Those kind of morality is not on those scientist.

What about eating them?

 There’s only 2 problems with bringing back the dinosaurs.
One, successfully assembling the genetic code (see the book The Lost World [AFTER reading the first one!!!]).
Two, they will never be free.
No matter how much I want a Jurassic Park, I say it shouldn’t happen. Why? Simply because keeping animals in captivity is wrong.

Check this, pretty interesting:

14 extinct animals that could be resurrected

http://www.mnn.com/earth-matters/animals/photos/14-extinct-animals-that-could-be-resurrected/fit-to-be-cloned

I think it might be possible but it needs many billions and crazy scientists with no obvious gain.

Technically chickens and birds are dinosaurs. Many of its genes is turn off and many is turn on. With a lot testing finding the right combination. We can possibly create a dinosaur like animal but not 100% dinosaur that roam many million years ago.

Well I'm more interessted in the shit we can find in the vostok lake as it is sealed for millions of years now and it might have a whole different set of creatures

May be we can have the next best thing which is to create a highly detailed 3d jurassic environment that we can walk into wearing head monitors. We have a much higher chance of achieving this than acquiring dino DNA.

That's what I'm saying, even we can't even manage to do such thing with species that went extinct a couple of thousands of years ago (the Mamoth is one of those) how are you expecting to do such a thing for something that went extinct hundreds of million years ago

10 months to get to mars, by the that time the earth should on the other side of the sun, and now way for you to get back ^^ so you have to spend some quality time there about a year and a half before thinking of heading back ^^

people have to overcome their fear (it's a Star Trek Episode 3 idea).   

Dinosaurs really?? BAD BAD IDEA… not that i think it will work, but if it did.. Did they learn anything from the movies??Can not be controlled…. but well.. that will be the end of the world.. Apocalypse by dinosaur. lol

there is no chance, we wil make Jurassic Park.

If the gentic code of Dinosaurs is found and the science is capable then I don't see why not.  I'm just thinking it would be best to do something like this on another planet lol.

If it is vacuum-packed, then it could last a few tens of thousands of years. But unfortunately, it is extremely rare to find such vacuum-packed specimens of prehistoric animals in nature.

Well, there are a number of reasons why we can't clone dinosaurs. First of all, we have already tried and have come out unsuccessful. Secondly, it is a difficult process that involves a lot of chance events at one time. Here are some reasons why it is not possible...


1. Dinosaur DNA is difficult to obtain and to sequence. Although ancient dinosaur DNA has been found, the DNA is broken apart and must be sequenced. This process is a little difficut because there is not a complete strand of dinosaur DNA anywhere to copy. We can't simply make it complete, we have to make sure that every base pair is in the correct place.

2. Even if we have the DNA sequenced, there will be some gaps that must be filled. Unlike in the movie, these gaps can't be filled by splicing frog DNA. Dinosaur DNA must be used to fill in the gaps in the DNA. However, we don't have the DNA to do this either. Also, splicing in frog DNA, will not create a dinosaur, it would create a mutant or a frog/dinosaur type organism.

3. Once the DNA is sequenced and complete, it must be inserted into an oocyte so that it can be cloned. The oocyte must come from the same organism that is being cloned (in our case this would be a dinosaur), and since no dinosaurs are alive today, this would be impossible. It wouldn't work to insert the DNA into crocodile ova because crocodile ova is specialized for crocodiles, not dinosaurs.

4. Even if crocodile ova could hold dinosaur DNA, a problem still arises with the development of the dinosaur embryo. Dinosaurs were born through eggs, so we simply can't put them inside of an organism. We must put them in eggs. In the movie, the scientist created plastic eggs. However, this would not work because every organism must have a specialized egg. A turtle's egg will not have the nutrients necessary for a fish, nor would a fish have the nutrients necessary for a turtle. Every organism must have its own special egg to nourish its young.

So, as you can see, there are a various factors that make it impossible for Jurassic Park to become a reality. Currently, we can't do it. However, maybe in the future, we might have the technology and the ability to clone dinosaurs and to bring them back to life.

Heh i saw that in movies but interesting idea to make It real , of course we could make real surroundings just like in a movie but about dinosaurs, i doubt newest technology could recreate them, but who knows, It just seems unrealistic to me.

Great topic, but I wonder if is good to have so big creatures near us hahahhaa. They are really huge creatures, they can also eat a lot

It depends on whether the DNA is exposed to heat, water, sunlight, and oxygen. If a body is left out in the sun and rain, its DNA will be useful for testing for only a few weeks. If it’s buried a few feet below the ground, the DNA will last about 1,000 to 10,000 years. If it’s frozen in Antarctic ice, it could last a few hundred thousand years. For best results, samples should be dried, vacuum-packed, and frozen at about -80 degrees Celsius.

How long does dna actually last?

I don't think that this is going to be successful. The DNA, blood and tissue are already tens of thousands of years old. Even if they are extremely well preserved, they might not be good enough to clone a mammoth. 

There have been plans for establishing a Pleistocene era park in the great plains area of the USA since 2005, using known living species to populate it, along with cloned/manipulated mammals. Kolyma River in Siberia has had a Pleistocene park running since 1988. I believe members of that group and some Japanese scientists were the people talking about cloning woolly mammoths for rewinding efforts.

"The baby female was found frozen in Russia so well-preserved scientists have even been able to extract blood flowing in the body"

Jurassic Park is on the way! I'm currently building and stocking loads of goat lifting/carrying devices. I'm ready.

Watch Total Recall instead.

You'll see mammoths soon enough, scientists didn't just stop trying. The only question is when.

So suspended animation probably wont work then lol.

Some of the Russian scientists tried to recreate Mammoths from the frozen corpses found in Siberia. But they failed in their attempt, as the Mammoth DNA was damaged beyond repair. So I believe that while something like this might be theoretically possible, it will be almost impossible practically.

You lack of understanding does not constitute a lack of understanding in others.  Your negativity is only applicable to yourself.


Statistically speaking, it is 100% probable.  The universe is infinite.  We just need to learn how to utilize our mind's full potential and we can visit any place in the universe.


Yes.

i want to "visit" mars.  for a period of 2 days.  i don't want to STAY there.  is this possible Branson?   

Statistically speaking, it might be possible, but we cannot visit such planet, not even in the next Millennium if we survive our own self destruction

Very much possible, I suspect

Lmfao. +1

Then go to a mental hospital or stop dropping acid

I hardly ever smoke anymore.

Go smoke another one Dank. lmfao

There are planets with dinosaurs that we are able to visit.  All you must do is believe.

Only then would the fun began its!

And that gives us added security - if they escape their enclosure, they'll probably die.

Until they evolve....

I think real live Jurassic Park only a matter of time... evrebody want Dino come back to live. If you make real live Jurassic Park, then you have a lot of money

So one day someone will do it for sure

We will create a closed areas with those dioxides level that they will need. This is no problem. If we will manage to create a dinosaurs I am pretty sure creating an enviorement for them will be not a prob.

Even if we can bring back dinosaurs using their dna, they may not be able to live in our atmosphere. The air in the jurassic period has much higher levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide. If they could survive the atmosphere, they would be constantly out of breath and will not grow to their original sizes.

In the movie, the scientist followed a detailed process and used a varitey of cloning and recombinant DNA technology. Here's what they did...

1. Find and collect amber. Amber is tree sap that has hardened and fossilized also preserving insects inside of it.
2. Take out the mosquito from the amber and extract red blood cells from its gut (Mosquitos suck blood out of organisms... such as... DINOSAURS).
3. Extract DNA from the blood cells.
4. Sequence the DNA to create a complete strand of DNA.
5. Fill in any gaps in the DNA by splicing frog DNA with the dinosaur DNA.
6. Insert this DNA into crocodile ova and create an embryo.
7. Put the embryo inside of special plastic eggs with large yolk sacs and little water.
8. Incubate the eggs in an environment with 100% humidity and a temperature of 99 °F.
9. Allow eggs to hatch naturally and for baby dinosaurs to grow.

Seems pretty easy, but it isn't possible.

I am so sorry to say that but dinosaurs cannot use any wallet app.
Just try to imagine a Velociraptor sending Dinocoins from android DinoCoin Wallet...
Not possible.

They would eat all of us and create their own DinoCoin!

I'm not sure of we could be able to keep a t-rex in a zoo lol

Indeed we do not own a technology that could make it real.

And I think it is very good that we cannot.  Dinosaurs would rule the world again.
Bad for a bitcoin.

Maybe in the future but I doubt it.

Recreate as in recreating dinosaurs genetically, or robots dummies ?

if it is to recreate real dinosaurs, it's impossible with our current technology, heck we can't get a usable DNA from animals that went exctint a couple of dozens or hundreds of thousands years ago, creatures that lived hundred of millions year ago is a no go

cause that would be fun.  with dinosaurs and all
