Dinosaur fossil find in Antarctic

The fossilised remains, thousands of miles from each other, were found less than a week apart on the frozen continent. One is an early carnivore, a relative of the fierce Tyrannosaur, that would have lived many millions of years after the other dinosaur, a plant-eating beast, was alive.

The carnivore was found on James Ross Island, off the coast of the Antarctic Peninsula, by Judd Case, James Martin and their research team.
