Deltadromeus, meaning delta runner, was one of the fastest carnivor dinosaurs who ever lived on earth. Deltadromeus is an early relative of the Theropod family, from which Tyrannosaur und Raptors developed in North America. Deltadromeus could reach a length of up to 7,5 m and a weight of 3 tons. Deltadromeus was armed with lots of these teeth and unusually long and sharp claws.
