Discover new carnivorous dinosaur fossils in Canada

Canadian scientists have discovered a new carnivorous dinosaur fossil in Canada.

This species of dinosaur named Acheroraptor Temertyorum , has lived on Earth about 66 million years ago and is a close relative to the Velociraptor dinosaur.

The team, led by David Evans, who is in charge of vertebrate ancient organism samples at the Ontario Royal Museum, discovered the dinosaur fossil on Hell Creek in Montana.

This discovery provides a more complete picture of ecosystems in North America, helping scientists better understand what happened before the major extinction period marked the end of the dinosaur era.

Archeroraptor is one of the last bird dinosaurs, living with the Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops dinosaurs.

Archeroraptor dinosaurs walk on large legs, have long skulls and dagger-like teeth. This is one of the last carnivorous dinosaurs that lived in the northwestern United States 66-67 million years ago.

Earlier this month, Canadian researchers also discovered an intact fossil skeleton at Alberta's Dinosaur Park.

This is the fossil of a small dinosaur of the species Chasmosaurus Belli, who lived 70 million years ago.

Research shows that there are no traces of injury on dinosaur fossils, so scientists predict that the animal may have fallen into a river near Alberta, drowned and buried in sediment. .

Based on the fossil skeleton size, the team concluded that the dinosaur died at 3 years old with a body length of about 1.5m.

This is considered the intact dinosaur fossil of the smallest size ever discovered among horny plant dinosaur fossils and is a very rare case.

This fossil study will help paleontologists learn about the evolution of plant-eating dinosaurs, as well as determine the age of small dinosaur bones discovered over the years.
