Could this beast be brought back to life?

Could dinosaurs really walk the earth again? If we believe our saucer-wide eyes in cinema, then (thanks to movie magic), yes. But is there any truth in the fantasies we watch on the silver screen? In a new regular series, we track down experts in various fields to ask them just how probable the outrageous scenarios we see in movies really are. This time we want to know if we could really expect T-Rex and his mates co-inhabiting with us if we find an amber-trapped mozzie like the scientists in the澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: Jurassic franchise?

Can you land a spitfire on a beach like in Dunkirk? We ask the movie's stunt pilot

In Jurassic Park, dino DNA is extracted from a mosquito and used to create dinosaurs. Science fiction or fact?
