China discovery suggests birds began evolving far earlier

Beneath the lush greenery of southeastern China, a fossil has surfaced that may rewrite the very origin story of birds.

Meet Fujianvenator prodigiosus—a peculiar, bird-like dinosaur from the Jurassic Period that has stunned scientists and sparked a fresh wave of curiosity about how birds truly evolved.

With unusually long legs and a mysterious blend of both primitive and advanced traits, this discovery suggests birds began taking shape far earlier than once believed.

But this isn’t just a tale of bones—it’s a story of resilience, of nature’s endless creativity, and of a tiny creature whose legacy lives on in every bird soaring today.

Step into a world of ancient swamps, groundbreaking science, and the wonder of life’s great transitions.

This is more than a fossil—it’s a feathered window into the past. Ready to uncover the full story?

Let Fujianvenator take you on a journey 150 million years in the making.
