Tongtianlong was discovered during the construction of a high school. Workers used TNT blasting, which destroyed parts of the fossil, including some arm and leg bones.1
The fossil was found in a very unusual pose: its head was raised and its arms were splayed out to the sides. Scientists think it may have died while stuck in mud, trying to free itself.12
Tongtianlong had a dome-shaped skull crest, with the highest point just behind its eye socket. This made it different from other oviraptorids.12
It was a bird-like theropod dinosaur, covered in feathers. Oviraptorids like Tongtianlong are some of the most bird-like dinosaurs known.12
Tongtianlong is one of six different oviraptorosaur dinosaurs found in the same area of southern China. This shows that these dinosaurs were very diverse near the end of the Cretaceous.2

?How big was Tongtianlong?
It was about 1 meter long, similar in size to a large sheep or small donkey.3
?Did Tongtianlong have feathers?
Yes, Tongtianlong was a feathered dinosaur. It belonged to a group of bird-like theropods called oviraptorids.13
?What did Tongtianlong eat?
It was omnivorous, meaning it ate both plants and meat. It had a toothless beak, so it likely ate small animals, eggs, and plants.1
?When did Tongtianlong live?
It lived about 66 to 72 million years ago, during the very end of the Cretaceous Period, right before the mass extinction that killed the large dinosaurs.3
