Would creating Jurassic Park be a good idea?

And if it happened would you actually go there? I just got the idea from seeing the movie last night and I was thinking about it this morning.

It would be a bad idea, if possible. It is an uncontrolled environment with deadly animals. I would probably not go, unless it could be better ontrolled then in the movies.

It would've worked out okay if Nedry hadn't shut down the park systems, so that was his fault.

It's not possible, yet
What the professor character (Dr. Ian Malcolm) said: chaos theory indicates you don't wanna mess with stuff that can have unforseeen deadly consequences
Build it and they will come, generating beaucoup cash
What enormous piles of dung!

it would be a good idea, we would learn from it.

Yeah. It shows how faulty the system was. If it could be taken down by one fat greedy computer nerd, then there is a problem.

It was and is still a scientific impossibility to recreate long dead creatures. Had it not been so, I am sure someone or other would have done it already, park or not. At the moment, some sceintists have been toying with trying to find a way of closing some a more recently extinct wooly mamoth from frozen tissues from the Siberian permafrost, and using a present day healthy female elephant to be the surrogate mother to bring it to life. That, however, has been a 20 year effort still bearing no fruit.

So, good luck to all.

And by the way, Velociraptor was a turkey sized small carnivorous dromaeosaurid from Mongolia, and not the ten foot tall monster that Spielberg made it out to be. I have no idea why he decided to misrepresent the species.

Cheers.
