Q: What was the biggest raptor? -Tyranogirl

A: This is probably the scariest dinosaur that ever walked the earth. Remember when I said T-Rex was the scariest? Well, Utahraptor would give it some pretty good competition! At 21 ft (7m) long and 6.6 ft (2m) tall, it was easily the biggest raptor of them all. The raptors you saw in Jurassic Park weren’t velociraptors, but they weren’t even as big as these guys.

Like other raptors, Utahraptor had a big ol’ claw coming out of its foot that it used to slice open its prey. The largest claws could reach up to 9.4 in (23.9 cm)! Not only was it long, it was thick too. While one Utahraptor was insanely dangerous on its own, a small group of them could take down any dinosaur that ever existed.

-Rex
