Velociraptor Was Feathered

The Velociraptor, those nasty little pack predators in the movie Jurassic Park, are now being said to have had feathers. That would make those dinosaurs the nastiest poultry ever to have lived.

“The researchers believe the bumps on the arm bone are remnants of quill knobs, places where the quills of secondary feathers important for flight in many modern birds were anchored to the bone,” Fox News said.

"Finding quill knobs on Velociraptor means that it definitely had feathers," said study team member Alan Turner, a paleontology graduate student at the American Museum of Natural History and at Columbia University in New York. "This is something we'd long suspected, but no one had been able to prove." (foxnews)
