Um, Troodon aren't raptors. They're a separate group called Troodontinae.

oh they aren't? I always understood they were raptors because they had the sickle-shaped claw on the foot. Well my apoligies for the mistake

It's ok. Yes, they do have the same claw, but it doesn't seem as big and deadly as dromaeosaurs. There might be a connection between the two though in terms of family.
