Dinosaur fossils were displayed in Hong Kong for the 1st time.

The first dinosaur fossils found in Hong Kong, possibly belonging to a large dinosaur, were displayed on Friday.

It has been determined that the Cretaceous period, which spanned 145 million to 66 million years ago, is where dinosaur fossils originated.

Hong Kong: After being uncovered on a small, deserted island, the first dinosaur fossils ever found in Hong Kong went on exhibit Friday. They most likely belonged to a big dinosaur. Paleoecological research in the financial centre now has fresh evidence thanks to this discovery.

The city’s Department of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Conservation stated in March that there might be fossils in the sedimentary rock of Port Island.

This week, an agreement to carry out additional study was reached by the Chinese Institute of Vertebrate Palaeontology and Paleoanthropology (IVPP).

According to Michael Pittman, an assistant professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong’s School of Life Sciences, China is one of the top four nations in the world for dinosaur fossil research and discovery, along with Argentina, Canada, and the United States.
