Coloring the Dinosaurs


Here's the possible coloring, feathering, and anatomy of anchiornis (the "near-bird" dinosaur), scientifically deduced by a team of scientists using geologist Jakob Vinther's research on dinosaurs.  

According to National Geographic, this marks the first scientifically reconstructed dinosaur. 


Incidentally, Jakob Vinther's findings also overhauls the fearsome Tyrannosaurus Rex, now sporting tufts of feather and a plumage (dinosaurs need weather-proofing too), a bird-like posture, and a dash of coloring.  That certainly dampens the T-Rex's scare factor.

If that's the case, Jurassic Park should have a re-edit.   And Satoshi Kamiya might have to redo his T-Rex diagram too.
