The Head of Junlang the Caudipteryx<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Body of Junlang the Caudipteryx<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The body of Junlang the Caudipteryx<\/em> was covered in short, downy feathers, a primitive type of feather. However, the feathers on its tail and forelimbs resembled the pennaceous feathers found in birds, which consist of a rachis and vanes. With long hind limbs, Junlang the Caudipteryx<\/em> could move quickly. Its tail was relatively short, with just a few caudal vertebrae, and it ended in feathers that pointed upward, as beautiful as those of peacocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
