120 Million Years Ago, A Mysterious Creature Hunted Birds

Scientists have discovered a fossil dating back 120 million years in northwestern China, prompting a reevaluation of their understanding of the predatory micro-raptor group with bird-like features. This specimen, named "Gian Changmaensis," is the latest of its kind and highlights that these dinosaurs had wings and full-body covering of feathers, with the ability to glide. This adaptation would have helped them in climbing trees and escaping predators. The discovery is significant for understanding the origins of flight in dinosaurs and extends the known geographic range of this type of fossil.
