I was reading about dinosaurs and there were supposed to have been feathered ones that looked more like birds than giant lizards. I have also read that birds and dinosaurs shared some common features besides a few feathers. I guess the issue of whether birds came from dinosaurs has been studied by scientists for a very long time and some recent discoveries may even support the theory.
Also, near China, fossils have been found of in recent years of bird like dinosaurs, or dinosaurs that may have been covered in feathers. Scientists believe that some of these dino-birds date back about 125 million years or more and share common structures such as bones, skull and teeth with known bird species. Feather fossils have also been found to support that some of these dinosaurs were covered in feathers and may be the ancestors of the birds today. very cool and very fascinating.
These are some awesome illustrations of what these dinosaurs may have looked like covered with feathers.
I am very fascinated with Dinosaurs and other extinct animals, I imagine most people are. Even though many fossils have been found, a lot of what happened to the dinosaurs is still a mystery. I think it’s amazing that scientists can find these pieces of bone that are millions of years old and reconstruct them like a puzzle into these awesome dinosaur and fossil displays in museums.
Here are some very cool dinosaur and extinct animal skeletons from natural history museums all over the world.

This is maybe one of the first dinosaur movies ever, The dinosaur and the missing link, a prehistoric tragedy part two (1917). It was made by Thomas Edison and is 2 parts. A long way from Jurassic Park. But very cool because it is so old, silent and Black and White.
I really can not tell if the dinosaur / caveman movie was made to be funny or historic. The dinosaur in the movie is great fun, I wish it was clearer.
