Hmm, all birds are dinosaurs. It’s been a long time since I last saw Jurassic Park, but wasn’t something like this a plot line in the film?

- Dangeranger 5y agoYes, it is exactly this plot line for how the dinosaurs were able to reproduce. All the animals were selected to be female to prevent natural reproduction.
- iammiles 5y agoThere is, but if I remember correctly this was due to using frog DNA to fill in missing DNA gaps.
- handrous 5y agoSame explanation's used in the novel, too.
- simiones 5y agoThe plotline there, as far as I remember, was that bullfrog DNA meant that some female dinosaurs could actually morph to become male and reproduce with the females (this is something that happens in some fish, amphibians, and even reptiles, where sex is not genetically determined).
- wil421 5y agoGrouper are all born females but they have both male/female organs at birth. The largest females will turn into males.
- AutumnCurtain 5y agoCorrect, and they had a designed lysine deficiency that was supposed to make them reliant on human-given dietary supplements to live. By consuming lysine-rich foods they were able to live without humans and some gradually changed sex to become male, leading to viable reproductive groups on the island.
- libria 5y agoSomewhat. In both cases, females were able to self-reproduce. In the film, females switched to male to fertilize. In the condors case, eggs developed without fertilization from males who were available.
