[QUOTE="essentialsaltes, post: 73685325, member: 294566"] [URL='https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-38224564?fbclid=IwAR3MTv80fZcXS8yi6jjAgK0xcYS1v9SVTEcwCMOJVcGE5xU0Mf2aQ7rWPaA']The tail of a feathered dinosaur has been found perfectly preserved in amber from Myanmar[/URL]. The one-of-a-kind discovery helps put flesh on the bones of these extinct creatures, opening a new window on the biology of a group that dominated Earth for more than 160 million years. Examination of the specimen suggests the tail was chestnut brown on top and white on its underside. From the [URL='https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(16)31193-9']Current Biology article[/URL]: Here we describe the feathered tail of a non-avialan theropod preserved in mid-Cretaceous (∼99 Ma) amber from Kachin State, Myanmar, with plumage structure that directly informs the evolutionary developmental pathway of feathers."
