Description
A specially-adapted dromaeosaur to the Arctic conditions (and hunting large game), Tyrannodromaeus gigas (giant tyrant runner) is a speculative genus of dromaeosaurine theropod from the Maastrichian, 65 million years ago. The largest dromaeosaur (on par with the African Forest Elephant in terms of height), it's tactic is much like other large predators; overwhelm it's prey quickly and before any serious damage can occur to it. The flesh-rending, 23-centimetre claws are it's weapons, along with a bite force rivaling that of Tyrannosaurus rex, making it the strongest dromaeosaur. It's arms, legs neck and tail are packed with muscle and fat, making it a fairly slow but lethally powerful predatory animal. Despite this, it is a generalist, eating anything it can find and is an omnivore, but one to treat with the utmost respect. It's intelligent, on the level of corvids, and this is what makes it such a dangerous foe. It hunts not as a single unit, but as individuals, each one aiding the others to bring down the selected prey. And with it's bone-crushing bite and flesh-rending claws, that's not too difficult. However, it's not agile or swift by any means, which is why it prefers slow-moving prey like ankylosaurs to swifter ornithomimosaurs or hadrosaurs.
