For the first time in the world, dinosaur blood cells have been identified

An international research team has identified traces of dinosaur blood for the first time in a 115-million-year-old fossil from Brazil. The discovery suggests that soft tissues may be more resilient over time than previously thought, potentially preserving their components for tens of millions of years. The fossil belongs to a small dinosaur, Aratasaurus museunacionali, which likely measured about 3 meters in length. The remains were well-preserved due to rapid burial in a water-covered depression, leading to a low-oxygen environment that slowed decay. While the researchers claim to have found structures resembling red blood cells, skepticism remains in the scientific community regarding the interpretation of these findings.
