text: would it ever be possible to bring dinosaurs back to life?   not with today's technology, but maybe in the distant future.  first we'd need to get the dna of a dinosaur, or genetically engineer a modern animal into something that resembled a dinosaur.  but even with the dna, we'd have no way to make a clone of that dinosaur with our current technology, and we're not even close to being able to genetically engineer our own bacteria yet, let alone a dinosaur.
