Today, 31 years ago, on September 24, 1994 (August 19, 1994) the United States first extracted dinosaur genetic material. On September 24, 1994, a research team led by an archaeologist at the University of Montana, Jack Horner, first extracted genetic material from a 65 million-year-old dinosaur bone. Horner¡¯s study involved a ¡°Highlander Dragon¡± bone, from which the deoxygen nucleic acid molecules separated resembled the genetic material of modern birds, suggesting that there was some form of association between the two. However, Horner and Woodward, when publishing their findings, emphasized that DNA molecules could be ¡°enlarged¡± and replicated, but only a small portion of the biological genetic material was sufficient to provide a basis for the ¡°re-creation¡± of the
