Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Size of the medium-sized dromaeosaurid Adasaurus mongoliensis compared to a 1.8 m (5.9 ft) tall human. Adasaurus is known from the holotype MPC-D 100/20 and the paratype MPC-D 100/21. The holotype is estimated around 2.4 m (7.9 ft) long,[1] and based on the metatarsal lengths the paratype is slightly larger.[2]
