Wyoraptors are a modern day dinosaur, relatives of the Velociraptor and Dromaeosaurus, discovered in Wyoming and native to the rocky mountain area, but have started to pop up in the surrounding areas. Originally thought to be a new species of prairie bird, these carnivorous creatures will eat just about any animal smaller or the same size as them, including eggs, rats, squirrels, pheasants, grouse, and most birds in trees, but are well known for their pack hunting. Wyoraptors, like our modern day chicken are covered in feathers, and have an expressive crest comparable to a cockatoo, with a fan of split feathers on their tail thought to aid with "steering" while running.
Wyoraptors are surprisingly good climbers, utilizing the claws and "thumb" on their wings to grab onto branches, and the large dewclaw to dig into the bark and keep grip. Wyoraptors dig shallow "dens" at the base of trees or in bushes where they will then build their nest.


The standard Wyoraptor has a thick coat of feathers, an expressive crest, three claws on their front wings, a large upstanding dewclaw on both feet, and a tail the length of their body, ending in a fan of split "fish like" tail feathers. The smallest adults and hatchlings stand at around 1' tall to the shoulder, and the largest stand at 6'5" and are thought to rideable with enough training, though training doesn't seem likely with these creatures.
Their crest is thought to be useful in finding mates, expressing emotion and conveying messages and warnings, along with their tail. it's been noticed that they use feather movements and tail positions to convey silent messages during hunting. The large third claw seems to aid in climbing, as well as being another method of conveying warnings, messages, and "hearing" of sorts when tapped to the ground.


Studies are currently being done on this modern day prehistoric species to learn more about them and their origins. Currently most Wyoraptors are being kept in zoos, sanctuaries, research facilities and by the bold, as pets. Keeping a Wyoraptor as a domestic pet is comparable to owning a fox or wolfdog. none of them are fully domesticated and the raptors are unpredictable. it's not advisable to own more than three as they pose a threat of hunting their owner although no reports of a human being killed have been reported so far. With their activeness, a large backyard or a lot of land is needed for these creatures, as well as a lot of attention and activities to keep them occupied. Wyoraptors aren't a recommended pet, but it's not currently illegal to own them either. Researchers are hoping that keeping them as pets will help to eventually work towards domesticating this unique species

Wyoraptors are a species of modern day dinosaur discovered in Wyoming. They're a cousin of the long extinct Velociraptor and Dromaeosaurus, thought to have had eggs that survived, allowing them to adapt and evolve in the modern world. They're covered in feathers like the modern day chicken, and have an expressive crest comparable to a cockatoo. Originally thought to have been a new prairie bird, pheasant hunters were amazed to find these ancient animals. Since their discovery attempts to domesticate them have been made with little success. They're pack hunters and full of energy, making them hard to keep as pets for people without large backyards and the time to devote to them, or large areas of land where more than three can be kept and left to their own devices.
Owning Wyoraptors is comparable to owning wolfdogs when it comes to needs, time, money and space to own them as pets, and for the most part are kept in zoos, sanctuaries and by specialists.

Wyoraptors are carnivores, often stealing eggs from rival raptor nests, prairie bird nests, and for the more skilled, other birds nests from trees, using their claws and "thumb" to aid in climbing. Beyond eggs, Wyoraptors will hunt most everything smaller than them, including squirrels, rats, mice, birds, fish, and unfortunately the occasional house pet. They're also known to take down creatures larger than them by surrounding them in packs of three or more, and leaping onto their backs or at their throat. With their stamina and pack instincts they're able to keep up with and often tire out prey leading to an easy kill.



Image

So far wyoraptors have been discovered in three sizes. the Standard has been found to be around 2'5"-3'. the hatchlings and smallest adult raptors have been found to measure at 1' in height to the shoulder, and the largest and possibly rideable raptor stands at 6'5" to the shoulder
