Description
Dromaeosaurus claw replica measures 2.0 x 0.5 x 1.1 inches. The Dromaeosaurus albertensis claw is a museum-quality polyurethane resin cast of original specimen. 1:1 scale. Made in USA.
Dromaeosaurus used large, sharp talons on their three-fingered hands to grab prey, while walking on two specialized hind toes. A massive, crescent-shaped sickle claw on the second toe stayed raised to remain razor-sharp for pinning prey.
It lived during the Campanian stage of the Late Cretaceous. Some fragmentary remains which may belong to this genus have been found from the late Maastrichtian age Hell Creek and Lance Formations, dating to 66 million years ago. Reasearches have also discovered teeth in the Aguja Formation.
They had a relatively robust skull with a deep snout. Albertensis also had a vein at the back of the head, the vena capitis dorsalis, that drained the front neck muscles through two long canals running to the posterior surface of the brain. The Meckelian groove is rather shallow and does not have much depth.
They had a bite nearly three times as powerful as that of Velociraptor and suggested it relied more on its jaws than on the sickle claw to kill its prey.
