MemberCompsognathusDec-18-2013 10:27 AMI discovered this on Deviantart. It now seems, after recent studies, that my beloved Balaur was actually no more than a primitive Avialan, and not a Dromaeosaur like thought before:

Wel, those are very bad news for me, as it takes away some awesomeness from this dinosaur. But, what about you? What do you think?

MemberCompsognathusDec-18-2013 3:03 PMWell, let's not get carried away. It may be a raptor. I need to see a scientific article/paper about it first. Deviant Art is not what I'd consider the most reliable source

MemberCompsognathusDec-18-2013 4:54 PMVery good examples. Sometimes they're right though. Like the new abelisaur. That's why I'll consider what's said, but I need some more evidence.

MemberCompsognathusDec-19-2013 1:40 PMWell, it's more a worry. And it's a friend that found that, and I trust him somehow.
Of course it's not sure thing, but... I hope it's not at all.

MemberCompsognathusJan-23-2014 9:14 PMi think it's outside what we consider normal for a raptor because it experienced a form of island dwarfism? correct me if i'm wrong on that but i just read it
