Description
Deinonychus skull replica 1:1 measures 12.5 x 4.5 x 4.75 inches. Deinonychus antirrhopus skull is a museum-quality polyurethane resin cast of original specimen. 2-part skull (separate cranium and mandible). Made in USA.
Deinonychus lived in the early Cretaceous Period about 115 million years ago. This dinosaur grew up to 11 feet long while hunting in areas like Montana and Utah. Furthermore, the name means “terrible claw” because of the large, sickle-shaped talon on each back foot.
Fossils from the Cloverly and Antlers Formations show a unique tail. The vertebrae have bony tendons and long processes to keep it stiff. This helped the animal balance white it used its curved ungula’s to strike prey.
