The branch of Science which deals with the research of the old fossils is known as Paleontologists and they have found something that has never been seen before as they discovered the fossil of a complete Baby Dinosaur which was in the curled position inside the Egg.
The new research has revealed the similarities between the theropod Dinosaurs and the birds they would evolve into. the name of this baby is 'Baby Yingliang' after the name of the Chinese museum where it had been placed. the age of the baby dinosaur is estimated by the scientist to be 75 million years old.
The Embryo is a little bit curled in its eggshell and the size of this eggshell is 6 inches. and at the current scene of the egg is looking like a modern bird that has small arms and has he has claws rather than wings.
amazing facts
The total egg is about 17 inches where the dinosaur is curled and the size of the dinosaur is about 27 inches from tail to its head. the researchers thought about its living life and questioned 'Had it lived ?' and told that if it was grown as an adult it would have 2m to 3m long.
Researchers have told this discovery as the rarest one and said that such discovery is among the best in the limited sites and half a dozen discovery sites and this is the first time when the evidence of 'tucking' is the posture in which it is specifically used in the bird's life in which the head is covered by its hands.
the news of the discovery has been published firstly in the iScience journal in the present week. the researchers also have revealed about the body structure and its physical body in which the co-author Darla Zelenitsky said that the bones are fragile and are very rarely preserved as fossils.
Darla Zelenitsky's comment
'It is an amazing Specimen, and I have been working in the research of the dinosaur and I have seen yet anything like this'.
on the other side, Waisum Ma the lead researcher said 'We were surprised to see this embryo beautifully preserved inside a dinosaur egg, lying as a bird size posture. and this posture had not been recognized in non-avian dinosaurs before'.
the fossil found in Jiangxi had been ended in storage for about 10 years and this was found by the Yingaliang Stone Nature Museum staff who stored the boxes and found them.
