Fast. Intelligent. Deadly. The "Raptor" is perhaps one of the most famous dinosaur today thanks to Jurassic Park. To many people's surprise however, raptors are heavily feathered and nimbler than movies would have you believe. The Jurassic Park Velociraptor was merely the size of coyote in real life! In fact, their proper family name is 'Dromaeosaurid'. The largest species was Utahraptor, and it grew to the size of a grizzly bear! Dromaeosaurid fossils have been found all over the world. They first appeared during the Cretaceous, though isolated teeth have been found in the mid-Jurassic. Allow

Hi all, This bone section is thought to be from a limb of Deinonychus. it's from the Cloverly formation in Carbon County, Montana. Is there enough there to ID it as Deinonychus?

Hi TFF, I am a Dromaeosauridae enthusiast and have been collecting online for a little while now. I want to thank the members here for getting me educated on so many aspects of fossil teeth identification. I want to share my small collection in the hopes this is helpful for some of you in the future. Your critical input is highly appreciated, as always! #1 First up, one of my treasures, a robust Deinonychus antirrhopus tooth from the Cloverly Fm. A big thanks to @StevenJD for letting go of this one – much appreciated! Note the asymmetry in the placement of the carinae

Hey was wondering what you guys think of this “Deinonychus” tooth? Info provided was Cloverly Formation, Montana, Cretaceous 105 myo. Those are also only the 2 photos available at the moment. Just looking at it now, one side of the tooth (nit the side with the bigger serrations) look quite worn. But i think i can make out some bumps in the first pic? So if they are serrations, the side with the more prominent serrations does look a lot larger? Thanks!

Hi!! There's a couple of questions I have that hasn´t been anwsered for too long, and every site that I visit says either contradictory information or doesn´t say anything about this topic at all. Anyway, here it goes. I've been a jurassic park fan for as long as I can remember, and I´ve always wondered if the velociraptor intelligence in the movie was, at least, close to reality. Even if another dromaeosaur like deinonychus had it.Also, In the movie, velociraptor sizes are awfully wrong compered to their real life counterparts. However,I've heard many times that the size of the velo

Why is Deinonychus no longer considered a pack hunter?
Gelatinous squid posted a topic in Questions & Answers
As far as I can tell, the evidence for pack hunting among Deinonychus hasn't changed; nor has any evidence come to light that contradicts it. The only argument I can find is that modern archosaurs don't pack hunt. But Harris hawks do, I don't know where that argument even comes from. -

On Sunday I took a trip to the Natural History Museum in London. I queued up before it opened at 10am and even before then there was a long queue. I have not visited this museum since I was a child and spent an entire day there (10am to 4.30pm - a long time). I was surprised as it is a lot bigger than I remembered and there was so much to see. This place has the most wonderful things and is an incredible place to learn. The museum showcases a Baryonyx, Sophie the Stegosaurus (the world's most complete Stegosaurus) and more! The moving Trex and Deinonychus are also really realistic in the way t

I only started collecting fossils about a year ago. I happened to just type in my favorite dinosaurs name into feebay on a whim. And I saw a fossil from an actual Deinonychus that I could own.... The addiction began, lol. A year later it's still a meager collection, especially being on a budget. But I wanted to share my finds thus far from the past year. A special thank you to @mburkett who ended my year long daily hunt for a deinonychus tooth.

Hey y'all! I've been wanting to go hunting for dinosaur material for a long time now - problem is I'm in eastern Texas (I also can't travel too far). Most of the stuff around here is marine. I've been doing some research, and I've found the Antlers Formation in southern Oklahoma which has deinonychus and tenontosaurus, among others. Where would be the best place to actually go hunt? Do I need to go on private property, by the side of a river, or what? It'd be great if anyone has gone hunting in that formation, I'd love to hear your tips! My primary goal wo

Dino Egg - Possible Deinonychus!
Seguidora-de-Isis posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Good evening to all! Anyone who wants to acquire a legitimate fossilized Deinonychus egg, just have a look at our favorite auction site. Bearing in mind that at this price, in addition to the egg, the embryo is already included, so the price is a real bargain! The only problem is that I am a complete ignorant in this matter, so unfortunately I do not know how to explain this right for you, but in the advertisement, the seller explains everything in its smallest detail! I know that I run the serious risk of all of you taking this piece from me before I c- 14 replies

Help: Deinonychus Antirrhopus and Velociraptor digital scans
niic posted a topic in Paleo Re-creations
Hi all, This is my first post on this site. I am hoping I have come to the right place. I've spent some time searching the internet for answers but not having allot of luck so figured I should look at asking dedicated forums such as this and Collections and Research institutions. I am hoping someone here might be able to point me towards somewhere I can download anatomically correct digital skeletal scans (in the public domain) for Deinonychus Antirrhopus and Velociraptor. I work in the film (visual effects) industry so reference material is super important to us and would love -
what do you think about this deinonychus tooth? The seller says it's from Utah, U.S.A. thanks to all
