Utahraptor

Utahraptor was a large, carnivorous dinosaur that lived about 130 million years ago during the Early Cretaceous period. It measured up to 23 feet long and weighed around 1,000 pounds. Known for its sharp claws and intelligence, Utahraptor was a swift predator that hunted smaller dinosaurs and creatures. Its most distinctive feature was the large, sickle-shaped claw on each foot, used for gripping and slashing prey. Fossils of Utahraptor have been found in what is now Utah, providing insights into the diversity of predatory dinosaurs during its time.
