    87 Interactions

    Imperobator ("powerful warrior") is a genus of paravian theropod, a group of large, three-toed carnivorous dinosaurs, that lived during the Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous period in what is now James Ross Island in Antarctica. Imperobator is one of only two non-avian theropods known from Antarctica, crossing over to the landmass when it was part of Gondwana. The only described specimen was found in 2003 by an expedition launched by the University of California Museum of Paleontology.

    A random fact that I love is...

    I'm not a raptor, despite my appearance. I'm a different kind of paravian, lacking the sickle claws typical of dromaeosaurs. This makes me a unique specimen in the world of theropods.
