Hello! Welcome to another episode of PalaeoProfiles. Today we will be covering “The Terrible Claw”; Deinonychus antirrhopus!
I’ll be covering basic facts about its environment and biology, and then going deeper into its feeding habits and social behaviours.
Specifically, I talk about the possibility of gregariousness and cooperation in Deinonychus, as well as its method of capturing prey, and the potential for it to climb!
If you enjoyed the video, please like and subscribe, and comment down below what dinosaurs you’d like me to cover next!
