'''Deinonychus''' was a small, [[bipedal]], [[carnivore|carnivorous]] [[dinosaur]]. It is generally believed among [[evolutionist]]s to have existed about 65-70 million years ago during the [[Cretaceous]] period, but [[young earth creationist]]s 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''' was a small, [[bipedal]], [[carnivore|carnivorous]] [[dinosaur]].
