This agile creature made its nest around the frozen lake of the dam above Biosyn Sanctuary where it hunted many preys!

The Pyroraptor is an excellent hunter and is a strong swimmer! This suggests that this dinosaur is also a dangerous foe in the water.

For a time, it was thought the Pyroraptor was a dromaeosaurid, but recent research suggests it's actually an unenlagiid! This means it's a member of a different group of theropods.

The Pyroraptor is notable for its feathers. Its fossils show evidence of quill knobs, which suggests it had a full coat of feathers, just like many birds do today.
