Prompt used to create the image
Scientifically accurate paleoart of Yutyrannus, a carnivore Proceratosauridae dinosaur from Barremian–Aptian times (125.77–119.57 million years ago). Bipedal with the back held roughly horizontal and the tail held straight out behind for balance, never dragging on the ground. NOT standing upright like a kangaroo. Mouth closed with all teeth fully hidden behind scaly lips, like a monitor lizard. NO visible teeth. The whole body covered in long, shaggy, hair-like filament feathers. A tall, thin bony crest along the midline of the top of the snout. Reference: Yutyrannus is a genus of proceratosaurid tyrannosauroid dinosaur which contains a single known species, Yutyrannus huali. This species lived during the early Cretaceous period in what is now northeastern China. Three fossils of Yutyrannus huali — all found in the rock beds of Liaoning Province — are the largest-known dinosaur specimens that preserve direct evidence of feathers. Anatomy: hands held with palms facing each other (not pronated, not palms-down, not dangling); three main weight-bearing toes on each foot; a large predator about 9–10 meters long with long arms ending in three clawed fingers. Full body in side view, whole animal visible, standing in a cool, temperate Early Cretaceous forest by a lake, like the Yixian Formation of Liaoning, China, with conifers, ginkgoes and ferns, no grass. Natural history museum illustration style, realistic textures and natural daylight, muted natural colors. No text, no labels, no humans, no modern objects.

Pin Yutyrannus on the globe
Yutyrannus was an early tyrannosaur from Liaoning, China, in the Early Cretaceous. Its fossils show long filament-like feathers over the body.
Fun facts
- Yutyrannus is the largest animal with direct evidence of feathers; some filaments were about 20 cm long.
- The find led scientists to think other large tyrannosaurs may also have had some feathers.
Who lived alongside it
Dinosaurs found in the same rock formation as Yutyrannus (Yixian), so they lived in the same region at roughly the same time.
