Velociraptor was a carnivore (meat-eater) that lived in
the late Cretaceous period, about 84 to 80 million years ago.
Fossils have so far been
found in Mongolia and
China.
Velociraptor was about 6 feet (1.8 metres) long, and about 3 feet (0.9 metres)
long.
Velociraptor was a predator that probably hunted in packs. Its most formidable
weapon was the curved claws on its hind feet. Its name, chosen by
Henry Fairfield Osborn
in
1924
means "swift thief".
Movie goers will remember that Velociraptors featured heavily in the
Jurassic Park movies.
In the movies, Velociraptors were as large, if not slightly larger, than human
and highly intelligent - however these two aspects of the creature
were exagerrated.
