Chinese villagers eat dinosaur bones

how they manage to find those? and even knew they are 'dragon bones' lol...

 

Obviously by its size.
Dinosaur in chinese is 恐 ( canto: hung, means fear) 龍 ( canto: long , means dragon ). Hence dragon bones.
As someone already said it is probably have to do with superstition

 

pretty sad honestly ;P...yea, the chinese are always renown for believin things ;P

 

compared to what culture? You cannont say we're always renown where there are probably other cultures that are even more.

You know dinosaur bones are the reasons why westerners have the feared fire breathing dragon and easterners have the woshipped and revered dragon(long). People back in the days-_-2

 

well at least it benefited them, im sure more bones will be found somewhere else.

 

It's sad to hear that but hey look on the brightside.

The villagers took a bit of history

 

flying dragon do exist you know in their dream!

 

i'm not very sure of the whole process of pressure and fossils over time to get oil; but shouldn't they be saving those bones for their industrial energy consumption?

 

^^^is going to take A LOT to make a difference.. not just a few bones to make soup

 

not just two decades
for a while now


i read another incident where they were using these "dragon bones" for chinese medicinal herb soups
but besides dinosaurs fossils, people also found human bones within the mix, but because they were just fragments of the bones, the people couldn't really tell the difference between one bone and another

 

that was cheap if they truly think that its dragon bones but its so cheap

 

hm.... this makes me wonder how "flying dragons" bones would taste like. But mummies "oh, hells no."
