Paleontologists have unearthed the fossilized remains of a predatory dinosaur that lived about 125-130 million years ago.

The predator belonged to the pangolin species and had a kind of hump in the lower part of its back.

The projecting parts on the bones of its fore legs look like those that are formed where feathers attach to the skeleton in present-day birds.

The fossils were found in the central regions of Spain.
