However, in recent years, thanks to some remarkable discoveries in China, we actually found out what some dinosaurs looked like.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sues called this discovery \u201ca real revelation,\u201d as we now know that some dinosaurs had color patterns as vivid as modern birds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a dinosaur called Caihong, and it had beautifully iridescent feathers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"549\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-16-at-3.56.38-PM.png?w=1024\" alt=\"In a recent video for\u00a0Wired, one palaeontologist, Dr Hans Sues\" class=\"wp-image-22691797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-16-at-3.56.38-PM.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-16-at-3.56.38-PM.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-16-at-3.56.38-PM.png 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/06\/Screen-Shot-2022-06-16-at-3.56.38-PM.png?w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>According to Dr.Sues, a T-Rex could not  detect prey by motion.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Youtube<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>And for many who don\u2019t fully comprehend how an asteroid could\u2019ve killed off dinosaurs, the palaeontologist also explained that in detail.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDoesn\u2019t an asteroid hit one <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> area rather than the entire world?
