I figured that we would create the genome of a facsimile of a particular sort of mosasaur by making genetic modifications to the genome of a particular living monitor lizard, such as a Komodo Dragon. Perhaps, though, several intermediate forms would need to be created first, since the largest mosasaurs were about 50 feet long and gave birth to live young at sea, while modern monitor lizards only grow to be about 10 feet long and lay eggs on land, I believe. Any thoughts?
