Scientists Recover T. Rex Soft Tissue

Here's an interesting news article, particularly for those of us who are dinosaur-lovers.

So, what do you think of all this?

I just wished they'd find a dragon too...I believe they existed too...Though it could be that some of the dinosaur bones that they found could of been dragons.

I know dinos are cool & all, but honestly, what difference does it make?? All this money spent on archeology & lab tests 7 the like just to find out a possible fragment of information of a species that no longer exists seems rather trivial when that time & money could be better spent.. just IMO - i know this isnt the PC attitude to have but thats my two cants.. not to mention taht this obsession with extracting dino DNA is not a little bit scary

Clone it.

It changes how you view the future, if you don't know the past.

Well I mean we knwo they died out.. I really dont think we will ever get a definitive reason as to why that happened so it seems a waste of time & money.. like i said i know this isnt the popular attitude to have but its jsut my opinion.. maybe something good will eventually come of it all and I will happily be proven wrong, certainly wouldnt be the first time 😛

Guess it's just human nature to want to know.

Cool article. T-Rex is my favorite Dinosaur!

i watched a tv programme that stated that the t-rex was a scavenger and never chased after its prey🙁
