Title Why One Extraordinary Collection of Dinosaur Embryos Remains Locked Away From Science Media name/outlet Discover Country/Territory United States Date 2/02/22 Description Liston, an early supporter of Manning’s work, would go on to write a paper published in 2013 about another obstacle facing the eggs and embryos. Before the exhibition, the Chinese government passed a law reclassifying dinosaur eggs from “trace fossils” to “vertebrate fossils.” This means they went from bearing “evidence of an animal … [to] the animal itself — a major reclassification,” according to John Nudds, one of the few scientists to publish research on Manning’s work. This distinction essentially made it illegal to remove dinosaur eggs from the country.
