Struthiomimus lived in western North America from 72 MYA to the end of the Cretaceous period 65.5 MYA. Although several excellent skeletons have been found in the earlier Judith River Formation of Alberta, the terminal Cretaceous Hell Creek and Lance Formation have produced only two incomplete specimens.

“Claws” Struthiomimus, an ornithomimid dinosaur, is nicknamed after the three wickedly long, sharp claws on each of this dinosaur’s hands – equipment which seems quite capable of catching, holding and shredding prey.
