'''Velociraptor''' is the name for a small, fast-running, carnivorous [[dinosaur]]. According to biblical [[young earth creationism]] beliefs, it was created on the fifth creation day (approximately 6000 B.C.).<ref>http://www.clarifyingchristianity.com/gen_1-2.shtml</ref><ref>http://www.albatrus.org/english/theology/creation/biblical_age_earth.htm</ref> Velociraptor was small for a dromaeosaurid, with adults measuring up to 1.8 meters (5.9 ft) long, 0.62 meters (2 ft) high at the hip, and weighing 20 kilograms (45 lb)<ref>Norell, M.A. & Makovicky, P.J. 1999. Important features of the dromaeosaurid skeleton II: information from newly collected specimens of Velociraptor mongoliensis. American Museum Novitates 3282</ref> The Bible says that two of every sort of land vertebrate (seven of the “clean” animals) were brought by God to the Ark. Therefore it is speculated that Velociraptor (land vertebrates) were represented on the Ark.<ref>http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2001/dinos_on_ark.asp</ref> So it logical to assume that Velociraptor survived the flood (4300 B.C). The velociraptor is now extinct.
