I went out for a walk and found dinosaur fossils. This sounds like a coincidence, but when placed in the "hometown of dinosaurs" Heyuan, it seems logical.
According to recent news, according to the @九painews report, on the afternoon of January 14, Jiang Anchun, deputy director of the Heyuan City Museum in Guangdong Province, unexpectedly discovered a dinosaur egg fossil near Heyi Road while taking his children for a walk.
After seeing the dinosaur egg fossil, he took a photo and sent it to the institute. The staff of the institute rushed to the scene to check and finally confirmed a complete dinosaur egg fossil. In addition, there were three more embedded in the surrounding rocks that need to be confirmed, and another Five egg prints with fossilized egg skins.
It is understood that these fossils were exploded during the excavation work at a nearby construction site. That night, these dinosaur egg fossils were transported back to the institute for restoration. The next step of research will be carried out later, and then these fossils will be displayed at the Heyuan Dinosaur Museum. .
There are many "Chinese Dinosaur Hometowns" in our country, including Zigong in Sichuan, Zhucheng in Shandong, Lufeng in Yunnan, Ganzhou in Jiangxi, etc., and of course Heyuan in Guangdong, of which Heyuan is the most famous.
In 1996, the first dinosaur egg fossil was unearthed in Heyuan. Since then, it has become the main excavation and collection place for dinosaur egg fossils worldwide. It is also a rare place in the world where dinosaur egg fossils, dinosaur fossils, and dinosaur footprint fossils are discovered at the same time. .
Netizen: You can encounter dinosaur fossils when you go out for a walk. It is indeed the hometown of dinosaurs. You also need professional knowledge, otherwise if it were me, even if I saw it, I would not think that it was a dinosaur egg fossil.
