Why clone dinosaurs? Honestly, it’s a question that brings out the dreamer in me. Just imagine standing face-to-face with a creature that walked the Earth millions of years ago—a living, breathing piece of history. It would be the ultimate way to connect with a time we can only glimpse through fossils and bones.

On a practical level, I think it could transform science in ways we can’t even predict. The process alone—decoding ancient DNA, piecing together genomes—would be a marvel, pushing technology and our understanding of life to new heights. And, of course, there’s the sheer excitement of it all. Dinosaurs are iconic; they’ve captured our imaginations for generations. Seeing one alive would be like watching a dream come true.

It’s not just about science, though. For me, it’s also about wonder—the kind that reminds us why we explore, why we push limits. Dinosaurs represent something bigger than ourselves, a world we can barely imagine. Wouldn’t bringing them back be the ultimate way to rekindle that sense of awe?
