Paleontologist Jack Horner Discusses the New ‘Jurassic World’ Dinosaur ‘Indominus Rex’ and Creating Glowing Unicorns

In a recent video by Wired, paleontologist Jack Horner, who served as a technical advisor for the Jurassic Park franchise, discusses how the new dinosaur Indominus Rex was designed for Jurassic World.

Horner explains how the Indominus is a transgenic animal, combining DNA elements from different types of animals that give it different traits. Transgenic animals are already a reality, and Horner explains how the science can be used to create glow-in-the-dark unicorns.
