Raptor 2.0

Scientists are trying to make it up to us for their Triceratops blunder. First they said it was a young Torosaurus, then they decided to make all Toros be called Trikes. Well nice attempt, but we still have a bone to pick with you!
Contrary to popular belief, real Velociraptors didn't look like their Stan Winston created counterparts in Jurassic Park. They were most likely feathered and the size of a turkey, resembling more of something along the lines of a...turkey.

However in a desperate attempt to get us to like them again, scientists have beefed up a cousin to the raptor known as: Balaur Bondoc. This dino came with not one but TWO slashy slashy claws on their feet. Making it that much easier for them to slash you across the belly spilling your intestines so that you can be alive when they start to eat you. They were also estimated to be about 6-7 feet long.


The Balaur lived during the Cretaceous Era when all the continents were in one giant island pile and the world was in constant Spring Break-party mode. Recent fossils have been discovered in what is now Romania giving us access to a partial skeleton.
