| Similar to velociraptor. This small, swift predator reminds me of an overgrown roadrunner with its long stiff tail, and its powerful hind legs. The comparison is especially apt since most paleontologists consider this group of dinosaurs to be closely related to birds. They may even have been feathered instead of scaly and reptilian! Deinonychus lived in North America 100 million years ago during the early Cretaceous. | |||
