Henry Wu, pretty much did all the dirty work, extracted the mosquito from the amber and took blood cells from their abdomen. They then extracted the Dino DNA from the blood in the mosquito. They then sequenced the DNA to make a complete strand of DNA. But the DNA was old and had gaps, so the scientists spliced frog DNA with the Dino DNA so the DNA would be complete. The DNA was then inserted into crocodile ova and created an embryo. Seems as it would have work but it didn’t. Why did it no work?
