Fossil reveals muscles and intestines in Italian dinosaur
A fossil baby dinosaur from southern Italy, Scipionyx samaiticus, preserves soft tissues including muscle fibers and the intestine. Discovered in the 1980s by a private collector, the two legged meat eater lived about 113 million years ago and may have reached over 6 feet as an adult. University and museum researchers note the find offers insights beyond bones, though no DNA is present.
