Dinosaur - Fossil skeleton - Anchiornis - 42 cm - 25 cm

The best Anchiornis fossil, the porcelain-like luster on the teeth is clearly visible, the bones are translucent like jade, and there are clear feathers. The blue ones in the film are soft feathers, and the yellow ones are the middle shafts of the feathers. You can see Feather pattern outline This fossil was processed under a microscope for a very long time without any repairs, no protective agent to cover up the details, and no pigments to increase the contrast. You can rest assured of the quality under the clear photos. What is rare is that the posture is close to the famous Archaeopteryx. Like Archaeopteryx, it played an important role in the evolution of dinosaurs to birds. It is more primitive than Archaeopteryx, about a few million years earlier, with a larger head, larger teeth, a longer tail, and more tail vertebrae. , the wings are less developed than birds, but the palms and claws are more developed, and overall they are closer to dinosaurs. There is a comparison between the two in the photo. It is of great significance for understanding the evolution and flight capabilities of birds. It represents a stage of transition from earlier dinosaur species to more advanced bird species. It lived in the middle or late Jurassic period and is the earliest known living species. Feathered theropod dinosaur Use air express delivery, packed and shipped in anti-breakage materials, with sturdy foldable metal brackets
