Deinonychus, or “terrible claw,” used its sickle-shaped second toe claws to pierce and pin down prey. These dinosaurs likely used their body weight to restrain their prey, similar to modern raptors. Beyond the foot claws, they had large, sharp hand claws. This specialized claw allowed for effective, active hunting.
