Evolutionists are claiming that a dinosaur found in China has DNA.  They say that it is 125 million-year-old animal.

”This would be a surprise for them, as a 2012 study suggests that DNA in bone will completely break down in about 7 million years, but the timing may depend heavily on environmental factors. ”

It is even more surprising., as it would destroy the mantra of millions of years.

 ”DNA is coiled inside chromosomes within a cell's nucleus. Researchers have reported possible cell nucleus structures in fossils of plants and algae dating back millions of years. Scientists have even suggested that a set of microfossils from 540 million years ago might hold preserved nuclei. ”

 Now, researchers are claiming that well-preserved specimen of Caudipteryx that was found in the Jehol Biota. Alida Bailleul and colleagues published their findings in the journal Communications Biology-

 

”In 2020, Bailleul and her colleagues reported the possible preservation of DNA in the skull of an infant Hypacrosaurus, a kind of duck-billed dinosaur that lived 75 million years ago, found in Montana. ”
