Description
The first fossil remains of Therizinosaurus cheloniformis were discovered in the
late 1940s by a Soviet-Mongolian fossil expedition, in the Nemegt Formation of
southwestern Mongolia.They unearthed several giant claws that measured up to a
meter in length.The animal total length was around 8 to 9 m (26 feet), it lived
during the Late Cretaceous (77-71 million years ago).
Therizinosaurus belonges to segnosaurids, herbivorous theropods.
The claws possible functions could have been defense against predators (for
example - Tarbosaurus) and as fighting for territory or for mating.
Modelled with Lightwave 3D.

Those look great I wonder if they liked to eat root vegetables? It seems odd for an herbivore to have such long claws

This looks like the gang of hippy dinos... never saw that before... kinda cool looking at it that way... They probably used a lot of dino slang - lol... on the other hand, once again you pulled off museum quality work - love it.
