Velociraptor lived in what is now Mongolia and north-central China between 75 and 71 million years ago. There area was a desert at the time, complete with vast areas of sand dunes and frequent sandstorms. Life was sustained by scattered creeks, which would be surrounded by vegetation. Plants were sparse except near sources of water, where there would be oases. Types of plants include conifers, cycads, ginkgoes, ferns, horsetails, and early angiosperms, such as primitive grasses and palm trees.
All velociraptor fossils have been found in Mongolia or northern China. The limit of their range was probably similar to that.
No velociraptor fossils have been found in the U.S. They have only been found in Mongolia and China. However, relatives of velociraptor, such as Utahraptor have been found in the U.S.
Velociraptor fossils have been found in the Djadochta Formation in Mongolia and the Bayan Mandahu Formation in north-central China. Velociraptor was first discovered in 1923 by Peter Kaisen while he was on an expedition with the American Museum of Natural History.
Probably not. There is no evidence of such a feature in any velociraptor fossils.
The earliest known fossils of Velociraptor date to about 75 million years ago. Presumably they evolved right around that time.
No, velociraptor lived in Asia.
Velociraptor fossils are found entirely in Asia, specifically in what is now the Gobi Desert in Mongolia. These often date back 75 million years or so, which wasn't very long for the continents to drift very far. Odds are, they lived in a desert environment very similar to what Mongolia looks like today.
Velociraptor probably lived less than twenty years maximum, maybe as little as 15. Velociraptor was warm blooded, and it was a small carnivore. Small, warm blooded carnivores don't usually live very long today, and theropod dinosaurs, which were related to Velociraptor, such as Tyrannosaurus and Allosaurus, lived less than 30 years. If you are asking how long the species existed, their fossils date to between 75 and 71 million years ago, meaning that they existed for about 4 million years.
Velociraptor fossils date to between 75 and 71 million years ago. That means they existed for about 4 million years.
Velociraptor fossils date to between 75 and 71 million years ago. That was during the Campanian and then the Maastrichtian stages of the Cretaceous period.
Velociraptor is a type of dinosaur. There are no living dinosaurs today, in any country. All known velociraptor remains have been found in Mongolia and northern China.
The velociraptor killed the legendary and rare Stellaraptor by hunting them to extinction in one of there fossils claws have alway's been found in them that were from the velociraptor species they hunted alone but when they got food more would gather and last on standing got the meal a full undamaged skeleton would be worth over five hundred thousand dollars.
