Via National Geographic, scientists in China have discovered the earliest known ancestor of T-Rex. T. Rex's Oldest Ancestor Discovered in China

Scientists say the 160-million-year-old animal, which had simple feathers and an elaborate head crest, is the oldest known tyrannosaur—a group of swift, flesh-eating dinos that culminated in T. rex some 90 million years later.

Two specimens of the previously unknown dinosaur have been found in the fossil-rich badlands of Xinjiang province in northwest China.

Boy, that evolution is something, eh? He looks hungry. Maybe we can feed him some fundies.
