Noasaurus

In Real Life
Noasaurus was a small theropod. Gregory S.Paul estimated its length at 1.5 meters (5 ft), its weight at 15 kg (33 lbs). In 2016 Molina-Pérez and Larramendi gave a higher estimation of 3 meters (9.8 ft) and 38 kg (84 lbs) with a hip height of 80 cm (2.6 ft). The maxilla bears at least eleven teeth. The teeth are recurved and have serrations at the front and rear edges. The neck is probably long as the neck vertebrae are very elongated. These vertebrae are also strongly vertically compressed with a low neural spine and bear long epipophyses, a typical abelisauroid trait. While originally reported to have a raptorial 'sickle claw' on the foot similar to the claws of the more advanced dromaeosaurids, subsequent studies showed that the claw actually came from the hand. The claw is exceptionally curved, has parallel base sides in top view, and possesses a deep triangular cavity at the base underside.

In Prehistory
Noasaurus was the replacement for Deinonychus in September of 2020. Although it is unknown which one was better, Noasaurus could certainly pack a punch for its size. It has a very high damage ratio to its health, and pretty solid bleed. Despite being fast, it can still be chased and caught by a Utahraptor. Noasaurus is semi aquatic, which most players don't know, and can swim at great speeds. This can be used to escape Utahraptors. Noasaurus is commonly found in the swampy areas of the map, using that extra swim speed to its advantage. Noasaurus' main prey is Dryosaurus and Nanosaurus, and can even kill Velociraptors. Noasaurus has more health than the formerly included Deinonychus, but not as much damage. However, it does have more bleed, so it is probably more effective. Noasaurus is only 12 points, which is fairly cheap as Noasaurus is the only dinosaur in the game so far with a venom ability. It is also the fastest animal in Prehistory, making it a nightmare to other Tier 2s and Tier 3s (if outnumbered).
