It is said that blood and other organic molecules can survive for about 50 million years.
Scientists have found the fossils of a mosquito that died nearly 46 million years ago.
With the blood found in the mosquito, scientists can re-engineer the DNA of the animal that existed at during that age.
Just like the movie, Jurassic Park.
But, unfortunately, extracting blood from a fossil of a mosquito isn't actually possible with our present-day technology.
We just have to wait and watch for the secrets this is going to unravel!
