Antarctica's first dinosaur bone stored for decades

Scientists have discovered for the first time in Antarctica a dinosaur fossil from the titanosaur group, which consisted of long-necked herbivorous animals that lived approximately 82 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous period. Researchers found that this vertebral fragment, belonging to a small or juvenile dinosaur, remained preserved within a geological formation for decades before studies revealed its significance as the first evidence of dinosaurs in Antarctica. This discovery is important for understanding the movement of dinosaurs between ancient continents and the history of biodiversity in the region.
