The 125 million-year-old fossil captures the dramatic moment in time when a carnivorous mammal attacked a large plant-eating dinosaur. It is among the first evidence to show mammals attacked dinosaurs bigger than them, rather than just targeting their young.

The dinosaur in the well-preserved fossil is a species of Psittacosaurus, which was about the size of a large dog and whose name translates to ‘parrot lizard’. Meanwhile the mammal in the fossil pair is a badger-like animal, called Repenomamus robustus.
