T-Rex. Is it possible to clone dinosaurs?

Looking for information about the possible cloning of dinosaurs discovered this amazing story reporting the discovery of soft tissue inside a T. Rex femur. This is what you put in this news :

"Three years ago, paleontologists working in the field of Hell Creek, Montana (USA) found several bones of a Tyrannosaurus Rex 'submerged' in thousand cubic meters of rock extremely hard. During the difficult process of recovery of the skeleton, dinosaur femur measuring 1'07 meters broke the stunned scientists unveil one of the biggest upsets of recent times. Inside the bone had, in almost perfect condition, soft-tissue cells and blood vessels from 70 million years old. (...)

The parties' hard 'of animals, especially bones, are preserved as fossils, and sometimes found fossilized other tissues, but is difficult to see in its' normal 'when have more than one million years old. These findings prove that the tissue can be preserved much longer ... up to 70 million years. (...)

A sample of soft tissue
found in Tyranosaurus

is the first time that soft tissue is in good condition for study in a as old dinosaur. "We have found samples of insects that have survived in amber, but never so old," said Dr. .(...)

The news is crucial because if it were possible to isolate the protein cells tissue could be achieved will learn much about these extinct creatures, dinosaurs, the study could definitively reveal whether they were warm or cold blood, on the life and habits. But the most impressive discovery is that these samples to extract the DNA ADN.Con the vision of Michael Crichton in his book "Jurassic Park" would look like a work of science fiction ever come close but the utopian aspirations of man coexist with the dinosaurs. Who knows with this discovery maybe in a few years as possible to visit a terrible tyrannosaurus cloned in any zoo ... "

As you see, is a very important finding. With this finding and that of my previous article opens the door to think that, in future, be possible to clone dinosaurs by man. Hence moral doubts now arising about whether to do or not, would be a Nobel Prize in science insurance, and he would recover a way of life extinct, but extinction of these animals was the work of nature, not man, So many people think it should be left where they are and dedicated to saving animals like the Iberian lynx or the donkey.

I leave the moral issue in your hands, to think a bit about what would be better because I have I still not clear and I find myself unable to give a clear opinion.

discovered a mummified dinosaur

This news is from last year, but I discovered today and has caused me very curious.


The finding corresponds to scientists associated with the National Geographic, which discovered a mummified dinosaur with parts of skin, bone and muscles intact. "One of the most important discoveries of recent times" as far indicate why the bones were fossilized bones were not themselves, were rocks, bones that had become rock retaining its shape, but were ultimately rocks nonetheless. With this new discovery has been found real bone and skin and muscle almost intact for more than 65 million years. These remnants can get much more information about these wonderful animals.

Remuneration As A Disorder

Reconstruction (2)

exposure Preparing

When fossil bones of a dinosaur come to the lab, saws and scissors are used to remove plaster jackets. Then begins the work of extracting the bones from the rest of the rock. This can be an extremely delicate operation, and scientific teams often need several years to completely clear all the rocks and the remains of a single dinosaur skeleton. This process is known as preparation. How fossils are cleaned depends on the hardness and chemical composition of the rock.


Scientists often collect large blocks of rock, since the very rock surrounding the fossil provides added protection during transport. Sometimes the rock also contains important information about dinosaur biology, and fossilized remains of the intestine or skin tags. Once blocks have been examined, one can extract the pieces of rock that contain bone meal or any material useful with diamond saws. However, when removed lumps of rock next to fossilized bones, scientists have much more care Tehran, not as powerful tools can be used. For this work, finer needles and instruments used in dentistry. These are made of very hard metals such as steel and tungsten, and are used to separate grain by grain, the rock of the fossil bones. Peden is sometimes used "pencils Special air that allow small beads of stone detached from the surface of the fossils. These tools use compressed air to dislodge tiny particles of hard material of the rock.


acid baths
Some rock types, such as clay, they dissolve in contact with acid. In some cases, the scientists immerse the blocks of rock containing the fossil bones in tanks filled with a weak solution of acid. For this purpose acid is often used, the chemical that gives vinegar its characteristic smell and taste. The acid is slowly consuming the rock, exposing the bone in it. Be very careful that the acid begins to dilute the blood. To avoid this, sometimes you have to block out the solution to paint the surfaces of bone with a special chemical that protects against the acid.


following steps
Once the bones have been removed completely from the stone around them, they have to rebuild. Is like trying to mount a huge three-dimensional puzzle. You have to use special adhesive glues that do not contain harmful chemicals. Often, the bones are very fragile and can be damaged by rough handling, with suatancias chemical storage areas and display, or even temperature changes. On the bones apply protective chemicals to protect them from these factors. When you have completed these steps, the fossils are ready for a detailed study and exposure.

Reconstruction and exposure
Scientists tend to hold exhibitions in museums featuring dinosaurs and animals exciting and dynamic. To achieve this, the skeletons are reconstructed in real positions, so that visitors can imagine how they ran or how they fought. Special structures are built to sustain heavy metal fossil bones and keep them in the correct position. Artists working closely with scientists to help them recreate scenes from the Mesozoic to get a bottom right forum skeletons.
