Sinornithosaurus — size comparison — facts and sources
Sinornithosaurus was a small Chinese dromaeosaurid whose fossils preserved traces of soft body covering. Feathers in its reconstruction are therefore not based solely on analogy with living birds. A long tail, grasping forelimbs and enlarged foot claw create the group’s recognisable outline.
It ate small animals. Proposed venomousness is not an established fact, and the exact colour of its entire body remains an interpretation.
