One notable feathered dinosaur is the Velociraptor, a small theropod that lived during the Late Cretaceous period. Fossils, particularly those found in Mongolia, show evidence of feathers, suggesting it was likely warm-blooded and possibly capable of some form of gliding or display. These discoveries have provided significant insights into the evolutionary link between dinosaurs and modern birds. Additionally, the presence of feathers indicates that many theropods may have had plumage for insulation, mating displays, or other functions.

How do you know the colours of some dinosaurs?
Some dinosaurs had feathers. Feathers contain small structures that give them their color; these are called melanosomes. If fossil feathers are exceptionally well preserved, they can be examined by microscope to determine the feather color. One dinosaur whose colors were determined this way is the Anchiornis. Further study may allow scientists to identify melanosomes in fossilized fur or even soft tissue, so that the colors of non-feathered animals could be found.
