Trove of Dinosaur Fossils Found in
Remote China
By MALCOLM W. BROWNE
HILADELPHIA -- An international team of paleontologists
announced on Thursday that a fabulous trove of dinosaur
fossils
had been discovered in a remote region of northeast China.
Hundreds of major finds at the site include the first
fossilized internal
organs of dinosaurs ever seen, and the first fossil of a
dinosaur containing
a mammal it had just eaten.
Many of the specimens excavated from the site seem to bear on
the
question of kinship between dinosaurs and birds, although the
wealth of
enigmatic fossils seems more likely at this stage to inflame
debates over
the origin of birds than to settle them.
