Dinosaurs are still found!

Dinosaurs are still found today as they shrank to birds

Although most dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years ago, one dinosaur lineage survived and lives on today as a major evolutionary success story - the birds, according to a new Oxford study. The study that'weighed' hundreds of dinosaurs suggests shrinking their bodies may have helped the group that became birds to continue exploiting new ecological niches throughout their evolution, and become hugely successful today.
