Dracoraptor
Dracoraptor was a small, fast meat-eating dinosaur that lived near the sea in what is now Wales. It had sharp, serrated teeth about one centimetre long for catching small animals. Scientists think it may have lived on the shoreline, hunting and scavenging.21

Ebyewuunyisa
Its name comes from the Welsh dragon, because it was found in Wales.1
The fossil was discovered in 2014 by brothers Nick and Rob Hanigan, along with Sam Davies, on a beach at Lavernock Point.1
Dracoraptor had three teeth in the front of its upper jaw, which is unusual for a theropod.2
Its skeleton was found in marine rocks, so scientists think the carcass washed out to sea from a nearby island.2
Dracoraptor was a fast runner because of its small size and long legs.1
