I'm assuming you're referring to this article? It's been circulating the internet recently, and it's very misleading! The article is about reverse eningeering a chicken to look like a dinosaur, nothing about cloning at all. Secondly, this is just word of mouth of a single scientist, Dr. Jack Horner. Thirdly, the original article was published 3 years ago with a still misleading title (using the minimal 5 years instead of the provided range).

Take the headlines with as many grains of salt as you can bear. We're still leagues away from cloning mammals that died out just a few thousand years ago, let alone hundred million year-old dinosaurs.
