'Baby Yingliang' Dinosaur Embryo Perfectly Preserved Inside A 72-Million-Old Fossil Egg in Southern China (WATCH VIDEO)
Scientists discover an embryo of a dinosaur in a pre-hatching state, still inside a fossilised egg in China. The dinosaur egg containing the embryo had languished for more than a decade in a storeroom in Yingliang Stone Natural History Museum in Nan’an, China until 2015. The scientists concluded the baby to be a toothless Theropod Dinosaur or Oviraptorosaur.
Scientists have announced the discovery of a perfectly preserved dinosaur embryo from at least 72 million years ago that was preparing to hatch from its egg. The fossil was discovered in Ganzhou, southern China, and belonged to a toothless Theropod Dinosaur, or Oviraptorosaur. Oviraptorosaurs, which means “egg thief lizards”, had variable beak shapes and diets. The embryo has been named 'Baby Yingliang'. The curled-up pose of Baby Yingliang is what interests researchers.
