The Stories of Febuary. New Carnivorous Dinosaur 'Draco' Found

A very early carnivorous dinosaur has just been found within rocks of a cliff in the south of Wales.


The dinosaur, named Dracoraptor hanigani or Draco for short, represents the first dinosaur from the Jurassic of Wales, according to a study, published in the journal PLOS ONE. The over 200-million-year-old dino is believed to be the earliest known Jurassic dinosaur from the U.K.
