Is the Raptor a pack hunter and how do you know?
from Matt, age 13, New York, New York, United States; July 24, 2001
TOM: Several finds from Montana and Wyoming show that multiple Deinonychus (a type of dromaeosaur raptor) with the skeleton of a much larger Tenontosaurus which they had apparently killed. Since a single Deinonychus probably couldn't kill a Tenontosaurus, there is some indication that the dromaeosaurs worked together to kill it.
However, just because Deinonychus may have been a pack hunter doesn't mean that Velociraptor or Utahraptor or all other dromaeosaurs were also pack hunters. After all a lion is a pack hunter, but its closest relatives (leopards and tigers) mostly hunt on their own.
