Tianyuraptor had very short forelimbs, unlike many other dromaeosaurids that had long arms.1
Its tail was extremely long, measuring about 960 millimetres (38 inches), which is nearly 4.8 times the length of its thigh bone.1
Tianyuraptor had a small and slender wishbone (furcula), which is different from the larger wishbones of its flying relatives.1
Its hindlimbs were about three times as long as its backbone, making it a fast runner.1
The only known fossil of Tianyuraptor is a nearly complete skeleton, missing only the tip of the tail.1
Tianyuraptor lived during the Early Cretaceous period, about 122 million years ago, in the Yixian Formation of China.1

?How big was Tianyuraptor?
Tianyuraptor was a medium sized dromaeosaurid, about the size of a large dog. Its tail alone measured 960 millimetres (38 inches) long.13
?Did Tianyuraptor have feathers?
No direct feather impressions were found on the only known fossil, but as a dromaeosaurid closely related to birds, it likely had feathers.13

- Tianyuraptor was named by Zheng and colleagues in 2009. The name comes from the Tianyu Museum of Nature, where the fossil is kept, and 'raptor' means robber. The species name ostromi honors scientist John Ostrom.1
