Using DNA derived from a pumpkin bug trapped in prehistoric amber, I was able to wrest Gourdzilla from the stone clutches of extinction. Of course this begs the eternal question facing all of us engaged in scientific pursuit: Just because we can, does that mean we should?
I'll leave such questions to the philosophers. Let me just point out that there is no evidence whatsoever that the pets that have suddenly gone missing in my neighborhood are in any way connected to the Gourdzilla Project, and nobody really liked that obnoxious pomeranian down the street anyway.

While strolling though the pumpkin patch, this freakish monstrosity just screamed "carve me into a dinosaur!"
Visit a rural farm with free-range pumpkins that refuse to grow into perfect little fascist spheres... you're bound to find the occasional treasure.
Once you've found the head, you'll need to shop for the rest of the body: a huge "pear" for a torso, a plump belly, assorted ovals to slice in half for thighs, a slim & tall one for the neck, and progressively smaller pumpkins for a tapered tail. The rest (arms & legs & feet and such) will be made out of either additional pumpkins, or out of the pile of remnants you'll be manufacturing.

Ten thousand?! Where does one find individuals willing to pay such exorbitant prices for a product doomed to rot in a week?!
