Pyroraptor lived during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 84 to 71 million years ago.1
Only a handful of small bones and teeth have been found, so scientists have to guess what the whole animal looked like.1
Another European dromaeosaur called Variraptor was found in the same place in France. Some experts think they might be the same dinosaur.1
Pyroraptor probably went extinct before the big meteorite hit Earth 66 million years ago.1

?When did Pyroraptor live?
Pyroraptor lived during the Late Cretaceous Period, about 84 to 71 million years ago. It probably died out before the big meteorite hit 66 million years ago.1
?Where was Pyroraptor found?
Its fossils were discovered in southern France, in Provence, after a forest fire in 1992. Some teeth from Spain might also belong to it.2
?Is Pyroraptor a dinosaur?
Yes, Pyroraptor is a dinosaur. It is a small theropod dinosaur called a dromaeosaurid.1
