Heyuan dinosaurs refer to a group of dinosaur fossils found in Heyuan City, Guangdong Province, China. These fossils are well preserved, abundant in number, and have high scientific research value. Many types of dinosaurs have been discovered so far.
The most famous of these is the "ornithischian" dinosaur Heyuanosaurus, which was found in the Xinpu Formation. It is a herbivorous dinosaur with a large body size of about 6 meters long. In addition, some fossils of theropod dinosaurs, such as Tyrannosaurus and Velociraptor, have also been found in the Heyuan area.
According to researchers, the Heyuan dinosaur fossils are about 120 million years old and belong to the early Cretaceous period. At that time, the Heyuan area may have been a humid lowland environment, suitable for the survival and reproduction of various types of dinosaurs.
The discovery of the Heyuan dinosaur is of great significance for studying the dinosaur community structure and evolutionary history in southern China, and also provides an important reference for us to better understand the distribution and evolution of dinosaurs around the world.
