Didn't want to disclose anything before the time, but seems that some info leaked out.


Well, looks like more info has been leaked  >:D :





Is this an escaped specimen of yours?, and if so, then did you give it special powers of focus alteration?

As a Bird Truther, we don't believe that nonsense statement. We actually believe that birds are holographic projections created to distract us from our oppression.

There are actually still best preserved specimens of the Dodo which contain good DNA samples, which give hope for cloning, like the frozen,preserved DNA samples of the Woolly Mammoth whereas for
prehistoric animals like Dinosaurs which died out 65 million years ago, their fossils and remains, do not contain preserved DNA, unless DNA is preserved in a mosquito trapped in amber/tree resin, like in the film Jurassic Park.

I'm not sure if you're being serious here, given the nature of the thread, but nonetheless...

I just want to say that the DNA is too degraded (even the "tiger in a jar" is too far gone to be useful). I think the closest thing we could achieve is some sort of hybrid. A full resurrection will never happen, at least with our current level of technology.

I know (hence my comments "I'm not sure if you're being serious here, given the nature of the thread") but I thought in this instance, Prehistory Resurrection was actually being serious, so I replied to it.

I was referring to him, in fact. No reason to keep the joke going.

Oh, OK, looks like I misread you there :)
