Horridoraptor

The imp (Horridoraptor luciferii, name meaning "Lucifer's horrible thief") is a genus of non-avian dromaeosaur theropod dinosaur that originally did not exist, but was created by an unknown group of people and/or person, possibly a rival to SciiFii. The imp is very unlike any of SciiFii's dromaeosaurs, due to being completely featherless and being covered in scales instead, as well as having pronated wrists, something that no "natural" dromaeosaur, not even SciiFii's dromaeosaurs, could do without breaking their wrists. Due to these scientific errors this species has, it is possible that the person/people who created the genus were fans of the Jurassic Park franchise, which includes the fictional Jurassic Park raptors, incorrectly called "Velociraptors", despite being much larger than Velociraptor (including the living species created by SciiFii) and having completely different anatomical differences (including pronated wrists and scaly skin). The imp is a large, heavy-built, ground-dwelling, bipedal, active carnivores, usually growing to be about 13 feet (4 meters) in length with a weight about 250 kg (551 lb). The behavior of the imp is closer to those of big cats and wild dogs than those of "natural" dromaeosaurs, including SciiFii's species, and even hunts in a way similar to outdated dromaeosaur restorations, using its sickle claws for slashing its prey to death, rather than hunting more like those of birds of prey as in "natural" dromaeosaurs. The imp is much faster than any other known dromaeosaur, having the running speed of up to about 70 miles per hour, about as fast as a cheetah. The intelligence of the imp is very high, making them nearly as smart as humans, allowing it to be able to coordinate its hunting methods very well with little to no mistakes. Despite these strengths and intelligence, the imp is not strong enough to hunt animals as big as or bigger than a white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium), as the imp is specialized in hunting fast-moving prey such as deer, pigs, predators, and among other similarly-sized animals. The vocalizations of the imp is almost identical to the vocals made by the fictional Jurassic Park/World raptors. The imp is found throughout the jungles, swamps, marshlands, forests, and open woodlands across both North and South America, possibly due to releases from people who created the species. The conservation status of the imp is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the imp's wide range.
