Gallimimus (pronounced GAL-i-MYE-mus) , meaning βfowl mimicβ, is a genus of ornithomimosaurid dinosaur from the late Cretaceous Period (Maastrichtian stage) Nemegt Formation of Mongolia. With a maximum length of 4 to 6 meters (13-20 feet) and weighing as much as 440 kilograms (970 pounds), it was one of the largest ornithomimosaurs. Gallimimus is known from multiple individuals, ranging from juvenile (about 0.5 metres tall at the hip) to adult (about 2 metres tall at the hip).

This dinosaur has become a new favorite for me due to The Land Before Time 7.

And I like the color schemes, but it looks pretty cool.

I've seen a similar dinosaur to this eating and raiding egg nests. I've even seen this one being chased by T-Rex in Jurassic Park.

Are you sure that the hand-position is right? As far as I know, most Theropods have inward-facing hands

Yep, every Theropod (and actually, almost every other Dinosaurs) were clappers, and not slappers, also, Gallimimus was probably feathered, and it's likely that they even possessed wings.

Yeah, the feathers...
Why couldn't people just accept them?

I guess it's the same thing that makes people say that the 1st generation of PokΓ©mon is the best... Misplaced nostalgia...

I guess you are right.
I prefer third Gen for the games, but cool PokΓ©mon are spread across all Generations
