3

A fossil of Sinosauropteryx has a tiny lizard preserved in its stomach, showing what it ate for its last meal.1

4

Sinosauropteryx had over 50 very long tail bones, which made up about 60% of its body length.2

5

Its feathers were short and simple, like down feathers, not like the flight feathers of modern birds.2

6

Sinosauropteryx could not fly, but it could run fast on two legs, like an ostrich.2

7
