...fossil beds are much finer grained. That's where paleontologists found the feathered tyrannosaur, which Xu and Norell named Dilong paradoxus ("surprising emperor dragon"). It's one of the oldest known tyrannosaurs, and one of the emu-size specimens has unmistakable traces of primitive feathers on its tail and jaw. Those filaments, which are about three-quarters of an inch long and branched like modern feathers, are the first direct evidence that tyrannosaurs sported plumage.

Emitting raspy moans, the man stares beseechingly at Bitsui, who cannot get the needle into the man's collapsing veins. A Marine ambulance arrives shortly and takes...
