Scipionyx
Scipionyx was a tiny meat-eating dinosaur that lived in what is now Italy, about 113 million years ago. Its fossil is one of the most amazing ever found because it shows the dinosaur's insides, like muscles and guts, turned to stone!1

Scipionyx is the first dinosaur ever found in Italy.1
The fossil is so well preserved that scientists can see the shapes of muscles, blood vessels, and even parts of the intestines.1
This dinosaur was a baby, only about 46 centimetres (18 inches) long, and probably just three days old when it died.1
Inside its stomach, scientists found bones and scales from lizards and fish, showing it ate a variety of small animals.1
Scipionyx had a long tail to balance its body and walked on two legs.1
The fossil was discovered in 1981 by an amateur fossil hunter who first thought it was a bird.1
