Real-life Jurassic Park: Scientist tips Frankenstein-like experiment to recreate dinosaurs

Birds evolved from the smallest members of a family of meat-eating dinosaurs, known as theropods.

This is the same group of monsters that feature the fearsome Tyrannosaurus rex and velociraptor.

According to a 2018 study, scientists have already figured out what dino DNA may have looked like by studying birds and turtles.

The team, based at the University of Kent, found the genome of a theropod like the T.rex was very similar to that of a modern-day ostrich or chicken.

Unfortunately, Paul Barrett from the Museum of Natural History warned this does not mean scientists are ever going to resurrect dinosaurs.
