Fossil

For the first time, Hong Kong has discovered dinosaur fossils, marking a significant moment for palaeontology in the region. The fossil, found on Port Island in a UNESCO-listed geopark, dates back to the Cretaceous period. Experts believe the fragments may belong to a larger skeleton. The find opens new research possibilities, and the fossils will ...

The first dinosaur fossils found in Hong Kong, likely from a large dinosaur, were put on display on Friday after they were found on a small, uninhabited outlying island.

Scientists have discovered dinosaur fossils in Hong Kong for the first time, the city's government announcement on Wednesday, adding that the species remains unknown.

A recent study on the small dinosaur Dromaeosauriformipes rarus reveals that it may have utilized its wings to achieve remarkable running speeds of up to 38 kilometers per hour. Analyzing fossilized footprints, researchers found evidence that challenges traditional views on dinosaur flight evolution. This discovery suggests that the ability to fly ...

The giant arthropod 'Arthropleura', which roamed the Earth over 300 million years ago, combined traits of millipedes and centipedes, new fossils have revealed.

A recent study has identified Quaestio simpsonorum, a 555-million-year-old asymmetrical animal found in Australia’s Nilpena Ediacara National Park. This creature, which moved like a primitive vacuum cleaner, featured a unique backward question-mark shape on its back, representing a significant evolutionary development. Fossilised tracks suggest i...

In the Kashmir Valley, rare fossils from extinct elephants reveal the earliest evidence of human butchery in India, dating back 300,000 to 400,000 years. The discovery includes stone tools used to extract bone marrow, offering insight into early human behaviour in the region. These fossils, from the extinct elephant species Palaeoloxodon turkmenicu...

The first fossilised head of Arthropleura, a prehistoric millipede-like creature, has been unearthed. This car-sized arthropod lived 346 to 290 million years ago. The discovery of its head helps solve a long-standing evolutionary mystery regarding its relationship with modern arthropods like millipedes and centipedes. The fossil reveals Arthropleur...

Climate activist Greta Thunberg was among dozens of protesters detained Saturday for blocking a road in the Belgian capital at a demonstration against fossil fuel subsidies.

Scientists have discovered a new duck-billed dinosaur species in Mexico, named Coahuilasaurus lipani. The fossil, originally misclassified, shows unique features like a large snout and tooth-like projections, suggesting the dinosaur fed on tough plants in its tropical habitat. The discovery adds to the growing understanding that dinosaurs in the re...

Hot on the heels of still-dominant diesel cars, electric vehicles now outnumber petrol models for the first time in oil-rich Norway, a world first that puts the country on track to taking fossil fuel vehicles off the road.

Methane levels, which are 80 times more potent than CO2 in the short term, are rising at an unprecedented rate. Human activities, such as agriculture and fossil fuel extraction, contribute significantly to this surge. Despite global efforts, including the 2021 Global Methane Pledge, methane emissions continue to climb. This trend threatens climate ...

Coelacanths are deep-sea fish that live off the coasts of southern Africa and Indonesia and can reach up to two metres in length. For a long time, scientists believed they were extinct.
