'''Deinonychus''' was a small, bipedal, carnivorous dinosaur. It is generally believed among evolutionists to have existed about 65-70 million years ago during the [[Cretaceous]] period, but young earth creationists accept it as having been created on the sixth day, along with all the other dinosaurs. It had a long, sickle-like claw on the end of its big toe. ''Deinonychus'' [[fossils]] were first discovered in 1931 by Barnum Brown in southern [[Montana]]. In 1964 the fossils were designated ''Deinonychus antirrhopus'' by John Ostrom and Grant Meyer.

Deinonychus are believed by many evolutionists to have been feathered, citing other supposedly feathered dinosaurs such as [[microraptor]]. However, whether or not even the related specimens were feathered is questionable. In fact, the only fossils that allegedly show these feathers are from China, and because of the infamous [[archaeoraptor]] fraud, it is very likely that these other fossils are also forgeries [http://www.creationwiki.org/Feathered_dinosaur].
