Dr. Tom Holtz and Dr. Michael K. Brett-Surman
answer dinosaur questions for the readers of ZoomDinosaurs.com
:



Is is possible for dinosaur's DNA to be found in good enough condition to be cloned? Or would it be too damaged to work.
from Kate, age 15, Los Angeles, CA, USA; July 16, 2001

MIKE: DNA starts to fall apart with days of death. Unless frozen immediately at death, there would be no way to get a full set of intact DNA from a dinosaur. Although scientists have looked for any genetic material from a dinosaur, no one has been able to get enough even to identify what the fragments code for. We do not even know how many chromosomes they had.
