size: unknown due too little fossil evidence
The name Orkoraptor is derived from†'‬Orr-Korrâ€' ‬the Aoniken name for the La Leona River of Argentina.When first described,†‬Orkoraptor was thought to be a coelurosaur thus a possible tyrannosauroid.†‬However later studies have since caused this notion to be dismissed as Orkoraptor seems to actually be a form of late surviving allosaurid.†It's possible that the geographic isolation†‬of South America from the rest of the world during the Cretaceous may have protected the lineage that led to Orkoraptor from other newly appearing forms.†‬This is also reflected in the fact that Orkoraptor is one of the southernmost carnivorous dinosaurs that have been discovered in South America.†‬Unless future fossil finds prove otherwise,†‬Orkoraptor may have been restricted to the south due to the abundance of carcharodontid and abelisaurids
