Late Jurassic
Western United States

Allosaurus had strong forearms which bore three fingers. In life, a horny sheath covered this bone and made the claw larger and sharper.

This powerful meat hook allowed Allosaurus to hold onto its prey while killing it with its mouth full of teeth. The largest claw of Allosaurus is on the first finger (thumb) and this replica is a cast of that claw.
