Feathered Dinosaurs at the ROM: Title: Deinonychus
Early Cretaceous Period, 110 million years ago Montana, USA
Life-size sculptures by Stephen A. Czerkas
When Deinonychus (“di-NON-ik-us”) was first
described in 1969, it was thought to be a bird-like
dinosaur and a possible ancestor to birds. It is now
known that Deinonychus itself has ancestors that flew
– flying dromaeosaurs – which makes it a form of
flightless bird instead of a dinosaur.
