Although much smaller than portrayed in some movies, Velociraptor was still a dangerous hunter. This agile, lightly built meat-eating dinosaur had sharp, backwardly curved teeth with serrated edges. Each hand was armed with three sharp claws, and the hind feet carried an enlarged, hook-like claw on the second toe. How do scientists know that Velociraptor used its teeth and claws to attack other dinosaurs? In Mongolia in the 1970s, a Velociraptor skeleton was found intertwined with that of a small plant-eating dinosaur called Protoceratops. One foot claw of the Velociraptor was embedded in the neck of the plant-eater, while the jaws of the Protoceratops were clamped down on the predator"s arm.For over 25 years, Safari Ltd. has been proud to provide this premier line of scale model, dinosaur collectibles.
