For all we know, ALL the dinosaurs had some sort of feathers, even if they were just little downy patches here and there. However, the most likely to be fledged are the ones ancestral to the birds. These would be those which travelled on two legs.

∙ 8y agoThere were feathered flying dinosaurs. Some are still around today. They are called birds. The flying "dinosaurs" many people imagine were not dinosaurs but a related group called pterosaurs. Pterosaurs did not have feathers

∙ 12y agoThis is a tricky question for many scientists for two reasons. The first being that feathers cannot be fossilized with the bone. We have to look for their imprints in the surrounding rock, and even those are rare. The second is that the line between dinosaur and bird is very thin. If you mean all dinosaurs includingbirds, then primitive fliers such as Archaeopteryx had the first feathers. If not, then a Early Cretaceous genus called Sinosauropteryx is the first known non-avian (not a bird, per se) dinosaur to have feathers.

∙ 14y agoOf course the the tyrannosaurus didnt have feathers, it had rough scaly skin and cold blood typical of "reptiles"
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoMany small theropod (two-legged/carnivorous) dinosaurs had feathers. This includes the raptors.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoYes. Flying dinosaurs are called birds. The flying reptiles known as pterosaurs were not dinosaurs, though they were related.

Where all dinosaurs with feathers able to fly?
Most did not. There were only very few like the pterodactyl capable of flight
What are some omnivorous flying dinosaurs?
There were no flying dinosaurs. All dinosaurs were strictly walking creatures.
What order of dinosaurs did birds evolve from?
Birds evolved from a group of Saurischian dinosaurs known as theropods. The theropods include dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus, Velociraptor, and Deinonychus. Theropods were predators who walked on two feet and had relatively small arms. Some of these dinosaurs were small and started growing feathers, at first to keep warm. Eventually these feathers became adapted for flying.
Did the dinosaurs have feathers in the past NOT birds?
Yes. More and more dinosaurs that are not birds are being found to have had feathers. In fact, velociraptor had feathers.
When were there flying dinosaurs?
What most people call "flying dinosaurs" were actually pterosaurs, flying reptiles that were unrelated to dinosaurs. However, birds are considered by most scientists to be a clade of dinosaurs, and thus birds are "flying dinosaurs."
Why do chickens have feathers?
A2. Birds developed from Dinosaurs, (Archaeopteryx) and the development of feathers was most likely to help them keep warm. Other developments led to flying, and feathers are a great aid here.
Do raptors have feathers?
Recently, feather imprints have been found on the fossilized remains of many dinosaur species, notably the raptors. While Dinosaurs have been traditionally envisioned with scales, it is now believed that at least some dinosaurs, and likely all of the small theropods, had feathers. Dinosaurs like Deinonychus, Utahraptor and Velociraptor had feathers. Some dinosaurs had feathers including, velociraptor, microraptor, oviraptor, therizinosaurus, sinosauropteryx, caudipteryx, anchiornis, dilong, psittacosaurus, beipasaurus, juravenator, archaeopterx, etc.
What was a flying dinosaur called?
What most people think of when they hear the phase ''Flying dinosaurs'' is animals like Pteranodon, Quetzalcoatlus and Rhamphorhynchus and the like. Those were 'flying reptiles' contemporary with dinosaurs. Such flying reptiles were called pterosaurs and they are notdinosaurs.However there are and were actual 'flying dinosaurs'.There is now overwhelming evidence that modern day birdsare a type of theropod dinosaur. Therefore the phase 'flying dinosaur' applies to them.The one of the biggest differences between pterosaurs and actual 'flying dinosaurs', the birds, is that the wing of a pterosaurs is made of a membrane whilst bird wings are made of feathers.
What reptile feature evolved into feathers?
Yes. Birds are animals that have feathers.
What fossil proved that dinosaurs had feathers?
The first dinosaur discovered to have had feathers was Archaeopteryx. Later finds found that many other dinosaurs including Velociraptor, Yutyrannus, and Anchiornis are known to have had feathers.
The name of the first flying dinosaur?
No known species of dinosaur was ever able to fly despite birds being believed to have evolved from them. The flying reptiles such as the pterodactylus, tapejara, geosternbergia and ornithocheirus etc are collectively known as 'pterosaurs'. Their taxonomy is considered different from the dinosaurs. The largest of the pterosaurs to be discovered so far is the Quetzalcoatlus.
What are the animals that are covered with feather?
All of the animals currently living on Earth that have feathers are birds, and all birds have feathers. There are fossil indications that at least some dinosaurs had feathers when they were young.
