A 46,000,000-year-old mosquito still had blood inside

A fossilized mosquito preserved for 46,000,000 years was discovered with blood still inside its abdomen a rare snapshot of ancient life frozen in time
It's from 2013, folks. Sadly no world-ending DNA.
Sadly no dinosaur
Imagine if a mosquito was found like this then they sequenced the DNA and it was yours! Sounds like a horror story
That is quite common actually. We call it contaminated sample
“Welcome, to Paleogene Park.”
Admittedly, the kids having to hide in the kitchen from a pack of Eohippi doesn’t hit nearly as hard.
That just means they've had 13 years to work on it. 13 years to get it ready.
13 years to spare no expense.
Yet.....
Bullshit. Clone the mosquito a bajillion times and I guarantee you'll end the world.
