Real JP raptor my ass, there is no analogue to the JP Velociraptor in real life

>>5015322 (OP)
Where are the feathers

>>5015625
Achillobator probably comes close

>>5015625
>solitary
How do we know?

>>5015712
Never found together and in general there's no reason to even think they're social

>>5015747
A single Deinonychus can't bring down a Tenontosaurus all by itself, there is no way they didn't pack hunt to at least some extent.

Deinonychus
>5 feet tall
>9 feet long
>160-170 lbs

They are still big enough to screw you up with those claws of theirs. Especially if they hunted in packs like I mentioned here.>>5016090

>>5016093
>330 lbs
>170 lbs
This is such a massive fucking difference it's like half the body mass

>>5016144
I didn't deny they were smaller. Just that they could still fuck you up if they wanted to.

I wonder if the CIA still would have brewed the dinosaur dark ages up if it weren't this stupid fucking chicken lizard.

People talk about killing baby Hitler, but what if you had the chance to kill John Ostrom or Bob Bakker in the crib?

>>5016090
Who says they ever did? I mean other than Ostrom's dumb ass.

The vegan nutjob has taken his meds and is returning to dinosaur discussion! Just a few minutes for the antipsychs to kick in and he'll be able to remember clades again

>>5015322 (OP)
They're easily my favorite dinosaur, loved em since I was a kid

>>5015322 (OP)
would a raptor looking like this be pre or post meteorite?

how would "early" raptors look like, when the modern feather didn't exist yet?

>>5016955
Raptors evolved pennaceous feathers before flight capable feathers.

>>5015322 (OP)
Anyone else feel bad for this fella?
>One of the most important dinosaurs of all time, it's discovery kicked off the dinosaur renaissance and shapes our modern understanding of dinosaurs.
>Had its valor stolen by something the size of a rooster because a movie thought it sounded cooler and now the general public thinks those are the sickle clawed dromaeosaurs.

>>5018955
The dinosaur dark ages were a mistake. Of course it would be a faggy theropod dressed up like a gangster that would cause it.

Why is some faggot here complaining about the dinosaur renaissance, it was literally the gem that saved dino cinema

>>5015322 (OP)
Can't you just post this shit on /x/ and leave /an/ for real animals?
