      Hi @purplepenguin- interesting question. I think at the moment it is not possible but some scientists think it is theoretically possible if we could find some of their DNA (a molecule in your body that contains all your genetic material). But dinosaur DNA is unlikely to have survived so long as dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago.
