According to the Sunshine Coast Daily, billionaire Clive Palmer is rumoured to be planning to clone a dinosaur from DNA so he can set it free in a Jurassic Park-style area at his new Palmer Resort in Coolum. According to a source close to Palmer, the controversial billionaire has been in deep talks with the same people who cloned Dolly the sheep in order to see if they could make his dream of cloning a dinosaur a reality.

The same source who is leaking Mr. Palmer’s far-fetched is the same source who provided the Daily with an exclusive peek at Mr Palmer’s plans to build towering hotels at the Palmer Resort with a 20-storey sky needle and a giant, London Eye-style ferris wheel. While Palmer has made no comment about the most recent speculations, was quick to deny he had plans to build a sky rail to Mount Coolum. However, Sunshine Coast Mayor Mark Jamieson has said Mr Palmer was very serious about the plans.

A spokesman said Mr. Palmer would hold a press conference in Brisbane on Friday, however, it is unclear as to what or how much the billionaire will reveal.
