People still butthurt over theropods having feather should just redirect their fandom energy to the Rauisuchians instead since those actually were scaly carnivorous bipedal reptiles.

Guided by Henry's illustrations, the morphology, along with phylogenetic analysis shows that sauropods evolved giant articular cartilage caps good at resisting compression; while theropods expanded the femoral 'head' to deal with compression and shear.

Ceratosaurs are often touted as ‘the scaly Theropods’ given their primitive heritage and evidence of scales, feature scales and osteoderms. However, given the likelihood that early Dinosaurs had them (mostly in arid climates), it shouldn’t be ruled out that they were all shed.

For I’ll be introducing our first “controversial” theropod, the “lord of lizard eaters”, a large allosauroid dinosaur from the Morrison Formation of the Late Jurassic of Oklahoma. Art by Hellraptor Studios

A late post, but I sketched some theropods tonight; no references so their accuracy is dubious, but I wanted to have fun ^^

Ever took a popular fictional dinosaur and gave its a realistic coat of paint? Well i did. Most of the design was based off most theropods

Hello!

It's If you like dinosaurs, pixels and hunting, but also don't love pixel-hunting, you may like Theropods!

My main curiosity is that the dentary foramina row is much closer to the dental margin & there doesn’t seem to be as much of a groove in Spinosaurus when compared to some other theropods (Albertosaurus; Majungasaurus & Allosaurus, Sinraptor & Acrocanthosaurus). Why would this be?

Got my scanner situation sorted out, so I dusted off my tablet and jumped on the Spinosaurus bandwagon. Such a bizarre and magnificent animal. The Pharaoh of dinosaurs.

Dilophosaurus is one of the earliest known large-bodied theropods, and I sometimes forget just how big it was!

I actualy give Jurassic Park credit for their protrayal of a novel display structure. It was a noble idea, they just failed the execution by copying a living animal 1:1
