It is amazing what modern science can achieve.In 2003,a scientist called Horner,who helped make the jurrasic park movie, made a fasinating discovery. Horner figured out that he could retro-engineer the modern day bird to turn it into its ancestral relative, a group of dinosaurs called “Raptors.”Horner believed that a modern bird’s DNA contains a genetic memory that could be “switched on” again, resurrecting the long-dormant dinosaur traits. First,Horner tried this on the emu. It didn’t work. Then, he found out that the chicken was a possible choice too. He managed to make one grow teeth, almost identical to those of an alligator!For more info, go to this link:Jurrasic park comes true!
