Boreonykus was named in 2015 by scientists Phil Bell and Philip Currie.1
Its fossils were found in a bonebed that contained at least 27 individuals of the horned dinosaur Pachyrhinosaurus.1
The name Boreonykus means 'northern claw', because it lived in what is now Canada and had a large claw on its foot.1
Only a few bones of Boreonykus have been found, including a skull bone, teeth, and a sickle claw.1
Boreonykus lived about 73 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous period.1
Scientists think Boreonykus was a dromaeosaurid, a group of feathered dinosaurs that includes Velociraptor and Deinonychus.6
