Meet the Utahraptor, one of the most powerful and agile hunters of the prehistoric world. Larger and more heavily built than its famous raptor relatives, this fearsome predator combined speed, strength, and intelligence to take down large herbivorous dinosaurs such as Iguanodon.
Utahraptor is best known for its deadly crescent-shaped claw on the second toe of each hind foot—a specialized weapon used to latch onto prey with precision and force. The Schleich® Utahraptor figurine captures this iconic feature along with a dynamic, ready-to-strike pose, making it perfect for imaginative play, storytelling, and hands-on learning.
