Description
Known only from a few specimens from the Hell Creek Formation, and partially associated with the infamous Tyrannosaurus rex, the so-called "Triebold-raptor" is a large caenagnathid, and likely represents a new taxon. Suggestions may be that it merely represents a new species of Chirostenotes, although this is based on lumping a large amount of variation from the Campanian and Maastrichtian into a single type of caenagnathid. Very little of the foot is actually known, and what is shown here is based on a single large toe and part of a hallux (inner toe), and one metatarsal.
This was largely done after Scott Hartman's reconstruction, [link] , although I did refer to my own notes and several high quality photographs. Not my best work. Expect the skull portion to change more drastically when better data comes in.

I was surprised to find out what a large animal this guy actually is. Nice skeletal too, just waiting on more data on the thing.
