Archivo: Dilong paradoxus VQER 35

Descripción: Reconstruction of the small theropod dinosaur Dilong paradoxus, with a suit of hair-like feathers. Dilong was a close relative to Tyrannosaurus rex, but was merely about 5.5 - 6 feet long, and had longer forelimbs with 3 digits. So far, Dilong is the only tyrannosauroid with evidence for feathers. Those feathers were not the type which most birds have, but they was like a kiwibirds: Simple, hollow filaments, more like the fur in mammals. The colorpattern is a guess, based on new research about Sinosauropteryx (another feathered dinosaur) possible colors ([1]). See skeleton of Dilong at [2], [3] and [4]
