ScienceDaily. "based on the presence of quill knobs on the forearm." "Finding quill knobs on velociraptor, though, means that it definitely had feathers.
J.Anat. "A lack of quill knobs does not necessarily mean that a dinosaur did not have feathers," said Alan Turner, lead author on the study and a graduate student of paleontology at the American Museum of Natural History and at Columbia University in New York.
I wonder why other velociraptor fossils haven't been found with feathers, if all velociraptors had them?
I personally have the issue of saying Giganotosaurus is larger than T.Rex based on fossil evidence when they both have basically the same hip height, with Giga just being slightly longer and some scientist say T. Rex is more heavily built. The critter was a pet of some friends. It says, "Deinonychus ALMOST CERTAINLY was feathered," (how do we know that?)
WP:FRINGE is clear that scientific articles need to have the rigor of peer-reviewed and direct evidence to back up the claims. I was thinking the same thing.It's been a while (several grateful years) since I've seen any of them, but I'm pretty sure that in the third one some of the raptors had a little plumage on their heads. It depends on what the intent of the post was. "The more that we learn about these animals the more we find that there is basically no difference between birds and their closely related dinosaur ancestors like velociraptor," said Mark Norell, a Curator in the Division of Paleontology at the American Museum of Natural History and co-author on the study. The work was supported by the National Science Foundation and the American Museum of Natural History.This research appears in the Sept. 21 issue of the journal Science.Get the latest science news with ScienceDaily's free email newsletters, updated daily and weekly. The authors suggest that perhaps an ancestor of velociraptor lost the ability to fly, but retained its feathers. The second wave incorporates the distal limbs, and the head.
Also what if one gets found with scale impressions then you have to change the picture. They found on it clear indications of quill knobs--places where the quills of secondary feathers, the flight or wing feathers of modern birds, were anchored to the bone with ligaments.
It is this secondary cascade that was probably effected somewhere along feathered dinosaur evolution; turning off feather formation in favour of scales in this region."
Copyright © 2020 SlashdotMedia. Feather impressions were known for some pretty close relatives to Velociraptor, and it was therefore suspected that Velociraptor could have had feathers too, but no direct evidence of them had been found until this discovery.
If it was to notify or remind XKCD to do a comic on the topic, it would be "cue".
if you want to do it right.We have known that other related species had feathers. mongoliensis Osborn, 1924 †V. No direct evidence on fossils show either feathers or scales on /Velociraptor/ or /Deinonychus/. Those that primarily soar or that have lost the ability to fly entirely, however, were shown in the study to typically lack signs of quill knobs. Rather, to cull the herd.See, in the article it mentions briefly before getting to the feather part that the Veliciraptor may be smaller than originally thought. From Nature magazine, the most exclusive and intensively peer - reviewed scientific publication in the world.
:) Yeah I understand that. The article related the "feathers" of the veliciraptor fails on two parts: 30 million year genetic difference and veliciraptors were only proven to have "pre"feathers, which means that the feathers weren't yet developed. WP:V is very clear that we can only include facts. It can hard at times not to express your own opinion on an important subject.
You forgot to mention that it has a brilliant, eerie blue head and an overgrown beak tNo, no... dinosaurs became extinct because they tasted Dennis Ritchie is twice as bright as Steve Jobs, and only half wrong. Feathers are a form of scales??? -- Jim Gettys 409 340 11K (1 Today) By HellraptorStudios | Watch. It has an average sense of sight and hearing, and an outstanding sense of smell. Combined with its relatively short forelimbs compared to a modern bird, this indicated it lacked volant, or flight, abilities.
The first wave is the formation of scales over the entire axial body (sans head), and proximal limbs.
