Ornitholestes
- Ornitholestes means "bird robber."
- It was a small dinosaur of the late Jurassic period in the area that was to become North America.
- Almost everything known of this species comes from a single skeleton of Ornitholestes, found near Como Bluff in 1900, and described by Henry Fairfield Osborn in 1903.
- Ornitholestes had small, sharp teeth and probably preyed on small animals such as lizards and mammals.
