- • Based Proportionally on Scott Hartman's skeletal drawing. [1]
- • Three specimens of Ornithomimus preserve evidence of feathers, including evidence of pennaceous feathers on the arms. An additional Ornithomimus specimen suggests that the skin lacked feathers on the lower parts of the thigh and under the tail. This image goes under the assumption that Gallimimus were also covered in feathers.
- • The colours and/or patterns, as with nearly all reconstructions of prehistoric creatures, are speculative.
Note: I often update my images; If you want to post this image on other websites, if possible, please link to the original file here. This will allow others to see the most recent version. Thanks.
