About this listen

A discovery in China in the mid-nineties changed how we picture dinosaurs forever. It was the first fossil of a feathered dinosaur ever found and it finally proved unequivocally that birds are the direct decedents of dinosaurs.

Ben hears about an amazing discovery that sheds light on when, and why, feathers first evolved and what fossilised feathers can tell us about the colour of dinosaurs.
