A giant dinosaur with scissor like claws roamed Britain 16.8 million years ago teeth revealed the secret

A dinosaur with scissor-like claws roamed Britain 168 million years ago! Paleontologists believe that mysterious ancient teeth found in three English counties belong to a dinosaur. These teeth were found in Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire and Dorset. Paleontologists say that these fossils are the first examples of therizinosaur and troodontid dinosaurs on British soil.

of reports AccordingTherizinosaurus was a giant herbivorous dinosaur, known for its long scissor-like claws. This dinosaur has also been featured in the recent Jurassic World film. At the same time, Troodontid was also a very old dinosaur. These dinosaurs are considered to be among the closest relatives of modern birds, having evolved into a separate species in the Middle Jurassic Period.

Of the mysterious teeth that paleontologists have linked to dinosaurs, some were discovered in the 1970s and some more recently. They were identified by researchers from the Natural History Museum and Birkbeck College. Machine learning techniques were used in this work. The teeth analyzed by the researchers are being linked to troodontid and therizinosaurus dinosaurs. This is the oldest evidence of these dinosaurs in the world.

This study has been published in the Paleontology Journal. It is reported that the scientists made good use of machine learning techniques to reach their conclusions. Created a 3D model of each tooth, so that AI could give information about its fossil. It is believed that dinosaurs were wiped out from our earth due to the destruction caused by the collision of one asteroid. An incident that happened millions of years ago ended their existence. Today only fossils of dinosaurs are found.

It has also been revealed in a study that the same asteroid which caused the extinction of dinosaurs also triggered tsunami across the world with high waves. A study by scientists at the University of Michigan shows that the tsunami devastated the ocean floor and left its mark.
