RE: Pterosaur embryo found in egg



Uncovered at Jingangshan in the Liaoning province of northeastern China, the fossil is the first pterosaur embryo ever found.

Just think what the state of paleontology would be today if China's fossils had been accessible to the world decades ago, back at the start of the dino craze. The mind boggles.


OTOH, could a case be made that, only now, do we have technology and background knowledge to properly investigate them?
