Utahraptor was a species of dromaeosaurid dinosaur. Dromaeosaurids, or more commonly referred to as raptors, are carnivorous and are very unique as they possess a specialized retractable talon on their feet. The use of this talon is mainly to pin down flesh as it eats but it's also used to hang onto larger prey as it attacks. Utahraptor is also equipped with a great sense of smell, excellent eyesight, and long legs built for speed. Unlike the islands deinonychus who rely strictly on being in a pack, Utahraptors, while they can form packs they also like being alone. With their amazing adaptations for hunting, utahraptor is a very interesting dinosaur indeed.
