If Jurassic Park ever happened....

Could Jurassic Park ever really happen? How much of what you saw in Jurassic Park can be considered real? Discuss all of that and more here...

gravity would do that but that's a different thing altogether. I know I've read somewhere that amber O2 concentrations are unreliable in judging past atmosphere.

We don't have a proof that the size of a dinosaur (or an unspecified prehistoric animal) can be affected by the oxygen concentration in air. Perhaps that they breathing with difficulty, like the sick stegosaurus in the JP novel (though that was come from it's disease).

Hey, yeah you're right they might have difficulty breathing...!
I mean, the pressure or maybe difference in todays oxygen would have kind of a impact on their lungs -- making breathing hard... /huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh:" border="0" alt="huh.gif" />
