The evolutionary relationship between dinosaurs and modern animals has been a subject of significant interest within the paleontological community. Recent discoveries have shed light on which animals may be considered the closest living relatives to dinosaurs.
The collective research indicates that birds are the closest living relatives to dinosaurs, with particular emphasis on the evolutionary link between dromaeosaurs and birds. The findings from various studies converge on the idea that certain theropod dinosaurs, especially those within the Maniraptora clade, share significant morphological and ecological similarities with modern birds, highlighting the intricate evolutionary pathways from dinosaurs to avian species.
