Description

Laelaps (now Dryptosaurus), painted by Charles R. Knight in 1897.

This dinosaur was first described in 1866 and was one of the first theropod dinosaurs known to science.  Most of Knight's images portrayed dinosaurs as large, sluggish creatures, however this one is unusual and quite before its time, portraying two dinosaurs living a more active lifestyle.
