Artist's Comments

Based on the holotype and a referred specimen, Buitreraptor exhibits a peculiar elongated skull that reminds me of a stork in many ways. The grey areas are portions of the eroded and obscured region of the sacrum and proximal femur.

So it could have been a heron-analogue?

You're back! Hooray!

Excellent Buitreraptor, by the way. I'm not sure I see a heron, maybe more of a stork or a hornbill. But that's just me.

Well, I don't mean it stood still and pecked at stuff on the ground. It appears to have a snout adapted to some probing habit, and it was probably a feeder of many small things.
