World's largest fossil site unearthed


Scientists claim to have uncovered the world’s largest haul of dinosaur fossils in China. They recovered some 7,600 fossils from a 980ft-long pit near Zhucheng city in the eastern province of Shandong in a dig lasting seven months. The finds at the site - dubbed ‘Dinosaur City’ - include the remains of a 65ft hadrosaurus, possibly a record size for fossils of the duck-billed species.”
