How to Make Dinosaurs

   We went upstairs in the visitor's center and got in the Control Room. The Chief engineer,John Arnold, and The Park Warden,Robert Muldoon was there. we went in a door with a sign saying EXTRACTIONS, The chief geneticist, Henry Wu was there. It all about the dinosaurs' DNA and fixing it with other animals' DNA. Hammond spent a lot of money on amber not to use it as jewelry or something, but for the blood in the insects trapped inside. Like the flies of today, flies in prehistoric times also bit dinosaurs and i don't think they like it (something we have in common). The scientists take the DNA of the dinosaurs from the blood taken from the previously mentioned flies. then the computers work to repair the DNA chains by replacing it with DNA from other animals( strangely they're not mutant).  We went in the Fertelization room where the dinosaurs' embryos are put into speial eggs. The were syringes filled with poison to injest the egg and kill the dinosaur if somthing goes wrong,  I felt a litte pity since those dinosaurs didn't even experience life. After the fertilization room we went to the hatchery where the eggs hatch. Unfortunately only 0.4% of the eggs actually hatch,But they have a lot of dinosaurs now, 238 to be exact. I wonder what happen if they breed, but Wu said that they make only female dinosaurs.
  In the control room we looked at the screens and saw the same thing in all of them, the supply ship beside the main dock. It transports equipment and food(hence 'supply'). Ellie asked if there were any raptors in the park, I also wantd to see them. Regis said there were some behind the control center. We went to see them when suddenly two raptors tried to attack us but was hindered by the fence.these animals were vicious.
