Deinonychus

A deinonychus, also known as a razortalon by the inhabitants of High Moor, was a carnivorous species of dinosaur in the family of dinosaurs known as dramaeosaurs.

Description
The deinonychus was a larger cousin of the velociraptor. They roughly stood about as tall as a human.

Biology
Deinonychuses could run as fast as the average horse.

Behavior
Deinonychus was a rather cunning creature.

Combat
These dinosaurs liked to leap upon their prey, pinning them down with their claws and powerful rear talons. They then would often attempt to feed upon their prey while it was still alive.

Ecology
Deinonychus tended to hunt in packs.

Habitats
These dinosaurs were most commonly found in the jungles of Chult, though they were also known to inhabit the Serpent Hills.

Beyond the Prime Material plane, some could be found in the Forbidden Plateau.
