Dinosaur bones being prepared for big debut
Adjust font size:

The Dongyang municipal museum in Zhejiang province is restoring the fossils of a dinosaur that lived 65 million years ago. It will be shown to the public in June.

 

While planting buckwheat near a hill on September 1, Li Yongcai, a resident of the city, noticed a long, large bone that experts from the Zhejiang provincial museum soon identified as that of a dinosaur.

 

After more than 20 days of digging, workers unearthed the remains of an entire dinosaur, which they then took to the museum.
