Pbs: Nova: The Four Winged Dinosaur

Curated by ACT

In 2002, paleontologists discovered a fossil in China that seemed to provide a missing link between dinosaurs and birds, and to support the theory that birds evolved from dinosaurs. The fossil came from a four-winged dinosaur they named the Microraptor. This PBS video looks at the discovery and the debates and research that followed from it.
