Definitions

  1. A small fast predatory dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous period.

Word origin

From New Latin Velociraptor genus name, from vēlōx (“swift”) + raptor (“thief”).

Used in a sentence

  • Bipedal hadrosaurs, great hulking lambeosaurs, certain rhino-like ceratopsians and relatives of the velociraptors - all large and probably able swimmers - had the greatest success.
  • This is my favorite velociraptor, and that is saying a lot....That this species is sunk into Velociraptor is rather unfortunate, because the name Deinonychus Ostrom 1969a is a fine one.
