Missing link for birds challenged by scientist
Beijing paleontologist Xu Xing challenges the Archaeopteryx link to birds, saying the so called Archaeoraptor Kangensis fossil is a composite from different species and does not overturn bird evolution. The National Geographic note notes CT scans showing anomalies and supported by more evidence of bird dinosaur origins. A separate Argentina find in Patagonia reports partial remains of a massive plant eating dinosaur, possibly the largest yet, at 157 to 167 feet long and over 100 tons.
