Some Dinosaurs May Have Had Ultraviolet Fluorescing Feathers And Horns

The way we assume what dinosaurs looked like has evolved significantly over the years thanks to more and more research. Now, new research adds another potential layer to the story with a species of ancient dinosaur that had ultraviolet fluorescing feathers and horns, potentially used in mating displays. A finding that provides some confidence to this theory is the Borealopelta fossil, a species of heavily armored dino that lived 110 million years ago in what is now modern-day Canada. Researchers have emphasized more community talking, investigating, and most importantly, testing and examining these approaches for scientific progress.
