so the make a clone from the dna found in the blood of the mosquito.
then they house it on a deserted island and see how it lives.

Your dad was watching "Jurassic Park" -- that is the scientific premise of the movie.
No one has ever done it and it is unlikely that anyone ever will, for many reasons.
-- No ancient mosquitoes with any blood in their salivary glands has ever been discovered.
-- The flies trapped in amber that are sometimes found are not from the age of the dinosaurs.
-- DNA is way too fragile to survive intact for 65 million years.

Not at this time .. You would have to recover the DNA of a dinosaur from the blood of the insect and at this time that is impossible ..................
