How Big
The Dinosaur - Bambiraptor
It's so tiny it barely looks big enough to scare a puppy, but the Bambiraptor is
definitely still classed as a dinosaur.
This little dinosaur was only about the size of a chicken and with a covering of
soft, downy feathers it probably looked a bit like one too!
But there's nothing cute and cuddly about its razor-sharp teeth and long, curvy
claws.
Did you know the Bambiraptor was named after that sweet book and movie character
Bambi because of its small size?
Although the Bambiraptor couldn't fly, it was able to run super fast to catch prey
such as small reptiles.
