As reported by
CNN:
The
tail of a 99-million-year-old dinosaur has been found entombed in
amber, an unprecedented discovery that has blown away scientists.
Xing
Lida, a Chinese paleontologist found the specimen, the size of a dried
apricot, at an amber market in northern Myanmar near the Chinese border...
The tail section belongs to a young
coelurosaurian -- from the same group of dinosaurs as the predatory
velociraptors and the tyrannosaurus.
The sparrow-sized creature could have danced in the palm of your hand.
