Dromaeosauridae (/ ˌ d r ɒ m i. ə ˈ s ɔːr ɪ d iː /) is a family of feathered coelurosaurian theropod dinosaurs. They were generally small to medium-sized feathered carnivores that flourished in the Cretaceous Period .
Deinonychosaurian theropods, especially members of the family Dromaeosauridae, are known for their recurved, sickle-shaped claw on the second toe being held off the ground, and thus not preserved in the trackway. This causes their footprints to preserve only two of their toes, making the deinonychosaurian tracks functionally didactyl (two-toed).
Like other theropods in the Dromaeosauridae, Saurornitholestes had a long, curving, blade-like claw on the second toe. Saurornitholestes was more long-legged and lightly built than other dromaeosaurids such as Velociraptor and Dromaeosaurus. It resembles Velociraptor in having large, fanglike teeth in the front of the jaws.
Dromaeosaurus is the type genus of both Dromaeosauridae and Dromaeosaurinae, which include many genera with similar characteristics to Dromaeosaurus such as possibly its closest relative Dakotaraptor. Dromaeosaurus was heavily built, more so than other dromaeosaurs that are similar in size, like Velociraptor.

In 1966 John Ostrom postulated that the diet of late Cretaceous chasmosaurs such as Triceratops and Torosaurus fed on very resistant and fibrous materials like the fronds of cycad or palm plants. [20] By extension, all Ceratopsids had a shearing dentition and efficient, powerful jaw mechanics that allowed them to feed on tough vegetation.
Yes, diet is important for managing bloating, but it’s not the only thing. How you eat, along with other health-promoting behaviors you practice, can also impact bloating. Here are some other ...
Several features of the tooth are only known from members of the family Dromaeosauridae of theropod dinosaurs. [8] Dromaeosauroides was classified as a member of the Dromaeosaurinae subfamily within the Dromaeosauridae, due to its similarity to Dromaeosaurus. Despite the resemblance, Dromaeosauroides is not considered part of that genus.
