Often overlooked by the general public, Herrerasaurus is a swift and agile predator. Slightly smaller than Deinonychus, this scaly carnivore was one of the earlier members of the order Therapoda in prehistoric times yet despite its age we have been able to recreate it nearly exact to the original genome.

Often holding their head about chest height on a human, Herrerasaurus has a strong stiff tail, and sturdy legs made for running and leaping. Although their wide, 5-toed feet have noteworthy claws on the center three toes, they lack the sickle claw worn by deinonychus and velociraptor. They also bear shorter arms than Deinonychus, however their hands are long and have long curved claws meant for gripping. A trait unique to this species is an extra jaw joint allowing for a wider and stronger bite.
