RE: Deinonychus: kangaroo?




In a message dated 97-06-10 12:45:33 EDT, you write:

<< I've recently been told that Deinonychus could bend their tails up and
down very well. Well that made me think about an idea that I thought about
earlier,did Deinonychus(and maybe Utahraptor and the rest of the Dromeosaur
family)balance on their tails and sparred with each other by kicking with
their claws? Possibly. Could  it be done(I'm asking you)? I'll look into it
some more and ask questions here until I come up with an answer.

This is a pretty interesting idea, makes sense, too.  It's true that
Dromaeosaurs(sp?) could bend their tails pretty far, but this was at the BASE
 
What about the mid-part of the tails?
