DILOPHOSAUR
Classification: Teropods, Neoteropods
Body length: 6 m
Body weight: 500 kg - 1 t
Period: Early Jurassic
Locations: USA, China
The name Dilofosaurus is derived from the Greek words “di” (“du”), “lophos” (“rag”) and “sauros” (“lizard”); hence the "lizard of two rags."
It originated from the most peculiar feature of Dilofosaurus - a pair of rounded rags in the skull, made up of extensions of the nasal bones.
They are considered too fragile for someone else apart from the demonstration. Dilophosaurs were carnivores and a myth of dead skeletons because their teeth were too weak to kill a large prey.

deinonychus
Classification: Saurichsia, dromaeosaurids, eudromaeosauria
Body length: 3 m
Body weight: 70 kg
Epoch: Early Cretaceous
Locations: USA
Deinonychus was a robust, fast-moving and agile dinosaur, which used to walk on two feet and looked a bit like a bird. It was built to kill.
This predator used to have a bent and flexible neck, as well as a large head with sharp teeth in a very strong jaw. Each of the three fingers on each arm used to have a large, sharp, bent claw.
The long tail used to have ossified tendons, which made it stiff, used for counterbalance and fast turns. Deinonychus also used to have relatively large brain and large, sharp eyes.
