Huge Dinosaur Discovery in China

Paleontologists in east China have dug up what they believe is one of the world's largest groups of dinosaur fossils including the remains of an enormous platypus.
Paleontologists have discovered 15 areas near Zhucheng city in Shandong province that contain thousands of dinosaur bones,the Beijing News reported.This group of fossilized dinosaurs is currently the largest ever discovered in the world...in terms of area,the paper cited paleontologist Zhao Xijin of china Academy of sciences as saying.In one area measuring 300 meters(990 feet) by 10 meters,more than 3000 bones were found,the report said.Since digging began in last March scientists have discovered more than 7600 bones.Included in the find was the largest platypus-or duck billed dinosaur in Chinese ever discovered measuring nine meters high with a wingspan wider than 16 meters the report said.Zhao said the discovery of so many dinosaurs in such a dense area could provide clues on how the animals became extinct towards the end of the Cretaceous period 65 million years ago,the Beijing News said.Scientists have also identified the remains of ankylosaurus,tyrannosaurus and coelurus according to China's official Xinhua news agency.Xinhua said paleontologists are expecting to find many more remains in the area which lies in a region that has produced more than 50 tones of dinosaur fossils since the 1960s.Plans are being made to set up a fossil park in the area but local mine operations that were suspended for the dig are eager to resume mining ,it said.
