Utahraptor ostrommaysi

Utahraptor is regarded as one of the largest members of the Dromaeosauridae family. Size estimates vary, but this theropod could have reached an adult size of more than six metres in length. It might have weighed as much as a North American grizzly bear (350 kilograms plus). It is known from fossil material collected from Cedar Mountain Formation of Utah. This dinosaur was formally named and described in 1993 (Kirkland, Gaston and Burge).

The design team behind the Beasts of the Mesozoic “raptors” are keen to introduce models of some of the larger dromaeosaurids into their range.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur confirmed that they were looking forward to the shipment arriving at the company’s warehouse.

The spokesperson added:

“We have a substantial customer reserve list for Beasts of the Mesozoic figures.  When the stock arrives, we will make sure to contact all those customers who wanted one of these exciting new figures.”
