Utahraptor is a famous predatory dinosaur, frequently referred to by the Hollywood term "raptor". Utahraptor had a greatly enlarged claw on each foot (shown here), as did some other theropods like Deinonychus. Classification: Animalia, Chordata, Vertebrata, Dinosauria, Theropoda, Dromaeosauridae Stratigraphy: Cedar Mountain Formation, Lower Cretaceous Locality: eastern Utah, USA Theropod were small to large, bipedal dinosaurs. Almost all known members of the group were carnivorous (predators and/or scavengers). They represent the ancestral group to the birds, and some theropods are known to have had feathers. Some of the most well known dinosaurs to the general public are theropods, such as Tyrannosaurus, Allosaurus, and Spinosaurus. |
