Abstract
Most non-avian theropod dinosaurs are characterized by fearsome serrated teeth and sharp recurved claws. Interpretation
of theropod predatory ecology is typically based on functional morphological analysis of these and other physical features.
The notorious hypertrophied ‘killing claw’ on pedal digit (D) II of the maniraptoran theropod Deinonychus (Paraves:
Dromaeosauridae) is hypothesized to have been a predatory adaptation for slashing or climbing, leading to the suggestion
that Deinonychus and other dromaeosaurids were cursorial predators specialized for actively attacking and killing prey
several times larger than themselves. However, this hypothesis is problematic as extant animals that possess similarly
hypertrophied claws do not use them to slash or climb up prey. Here we offer an alternative interpretation: that the
hypertrophied D-II claw of dromaeosaurids was functionally analogous to the enlarged talon also found on D-II of extant
Accipitridae (hawks and eagles; one family of the birds commonly known as ‘‘raptors’’). Here, the talon is used to maintain
grip on prey of subequal body size to the predator, while the victim is pinned down by the body weight of the raptor and
dismembered by the beak. The foot of Deinonychus exhibits morphology
