The dinosaurs commonly referred to as "raptors" were in a family known as dromaeosaurids. These dinosaurs first appeared about 165 million years ago and died out 65.5 million years ago along with the rest of the non-avian dinosaurs. Velociraptor, the dinosaur which popularized the term "raptor" for this family lived from 75 million to 71 million years ago.
