Carnivore - It was named by paleontologist Richard Owen in 1859. Dimorphodon means two-form tooth, derived from Greek διdi meaning two, μορφηmorphe meaning shape and οδωνodon meaning tooth, referring to the f that it had two distinct types of teeth in its jaws - which is comparatively rare among reptiles. Dimorphodon had an adult body length of 1 metre (3.3 ft) long, with a 1.45 metre (4.6 ft) wingspan.[1][2] The tail of Dimorphodon was long and consisted of thirty vertebrae. The first five or six were short and flexible, but the remainder gradually increased in length and were stiffened by elongated vertebral processes.[1] \rbr\rbrTherizinosaurus - Ther-ih-Zin-o-Sore-us\rbrThe Therizinosaurus had huge forelimb claws, each up to one meter long. Until today, nobody has found out what it needed weapons like these for. \rbrIt could grow up to 10 meters (33 feet) long and reach 1,000 pounds. Therizinosaurus lived in the late Cretaceous Period (late Campanian-early Maastrichtian stages, around 70 million years ago), and was one of the last and largest representatives of its unique group, the Therizinosauria (reaping lizards). Some scientists think they were used to tear open termite mounds. Therizinosaurs had a fairly long neck, small head, and teeth that could have been used to eat plants. \rbr\rbrThe most impressive feature of the Therizinosaurus is its striking gigantic claws. Their purpose has not yet been revealed, however it is likely that it used the claws to defend itself. Since only a few skeletal fragments have been found so far, apart from the claws, one can only assume what the dinosaur ually looked like and what its feeding habits were. However, it undoubtedly lived approx. 70 million years ago and must have looked extremely impressive.
