Megaraptor Claw CompsognathusMegaraptor ("giant thief") was once thought to be the largest dromaeosaur ever found, but is now known to be a carnosaur related to Allosaurus. It lived in Late Cretaceous times in the Patagonian region of Argentina. It was a contemporary of Giganotosaurus, one of the largest carnivorous dinosaurs of all time. Megaraptor was initially described as a giant dromaeosaur (the "raptors"), known primarily from a single claw that resembled the sickle shaped
