This year has been filled with a series of unexpected events, so it might not come off as a surprise that people have bought the idea of a baby dinosaur being cloned in China.
A Twitter user had posted a video of what appears to be a baby Parasaurolophus held by a man in a lab coat. The tweet has since been deleted.
However, the footage has since resurfaced, speculating that this is first dinosaur cloned by scientists in China.
The news was immediately debunked by Latestly. The dinosaur depicted in the video was reportedly an animatronic puppet from a Jurassic World-themed exhibition.
