Foot of an assigned S. langstoni specimen. Two more complete and larger partial skeletons (RTMP 88.121.39 and MOR 660), dozens of isolated bones, and scores of teeth are known from the badlands of Dinosaur Provincial Park in Alberta; most of these are housed at the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, in Drumheller, Alberta and remain undescribed.
Velociraptor (/ v ə ˌ l ɒ s ɪ ˈ r æ p t ər, v ə ˈ l ɒ s ɪ r æ p t ər /; [1] lit.

Two species are currently recognized, although others have been assigned in the past.

A size comparison diagram between a real-life Velociraptor (green) and a Velociraptor from Jurassic Park (orange) alongside a human (blue) Real Velociraptors measured approximately 2 feet (0.61 m) in height and 6 feet (1.8 m) in length. [9] The franchise, however, depicts the animal as being larger than its real-life counterpart.
Tsaagan is a member of the group Dromaeosauridae.A cladistic analysis by Norell et al. originally indicated it was more precisely a member of the Velociraptorinae. [1] In 2010 an analysis showed it was closely related to Linheraptor; [3] subsequently Senter (2011) and Turner, Makovicky and Norell (2012) argued that Linheraptor exquisitus is in fact a junior synonym of Tsaagan mangas.

Artistic restoration of Deinonychus preying on Zephyrosaurus. This timeline of dromaeosaurid research is a chronological listing of events in the history of paleontology focused on the dromaeosaurids, a group of sickle-clawed, bird-like theropod dinosaurs including animals like Velociraptor.
