I hope they are able to take xrays of those eggs. Interesting to know what type of dinos lived in that area.

Jurassic Park here we come! Lol I broke a rotten duck egg when I was a kid. Not a very good clean smell. Hope they are careful moving them. Thanks for the news.

yea i doubt Jurassic park is on the way too
i actually believe we already have it
i mean seriously with our genetic technology and advancements with cloning and dna and everything im pretty sure somewhere some scientist has figured it out and done it
somewhere theres a t rex eating something

I thought dinosaurs were only as big as they were due to our dense atmosphere we used to have.
Now that the atmosphere is thinner and if we managed to extract the dna and replicate it........... would that mean we'd have mini dinosaurs?
Current theories about fossil preservation hold that organic molecules should not preserve beyond 100,000 years. Schweitzer hopes that further research will reveal exactly what the soft structures isolated from these bones are made of. Do they consist of the original cells, and if so, do the cells still contain genetic information? Her early studies of the material suggest that at least some fragments of the dinosaurs' original molecular material may still be present.

Thats an ignorant assumption to make. Our genetic technology isn't very good yet... neither is our cloning technology. Give us about another 20 or 30 years and we'll be doing great.

So you have personally spoke with all genetic scientist around the world to see how far their cloning technology stands to date? IMO, that is an ignorant assumption to assume you know everything about cloning.

wow .. what type of alien-queen type dino momma layed so many hundreds of eggs in one sitting?
maybe a nesting hen-house type area that many mommas used at once?
