WHAT COUNTS:
Revived animal must be mostly healthy, be able to walk around and eat. If it's a hybrid with living species, it should also be fertile so that genetic similarity can be brought higher with future generations.
Efforts such as the Quagga Project that use selective breeding to produce animals similar in appearance but not based on original genetic material won't count for this question.
If it will turn out that an animal is not in fact extinct, that option will resolve N/A.

1.00@VanessaKosoy Looks like I can’t NA answers anymore so we’ll treat this one literally. Birds are dinosaurs so resurrecting any extinct bird will count as YES.
I wonder what @Naten8 meant originally :)
I've gone and added an option for anything extinct more than 65mya to account for what OP probably meant by dinosaur while allowing the non dinosaurs that people often confuse with them in too (pterosaurs, plesiosaurs, dimetrodon) because why not! It is at the cost of including uncharismatic lizards, small mammals and fish along with T-Rex.
The half-life of DNA makes it impossible as far as we know, but then again, my dinosaur books as a kid said we'd never know what colour they were, so anything is possible!
