Fossil Atlas answer
Deinonychus fossils in Fossil Atlas are represented by 17 selected modern discovery records. North America, especially Cloverly, Antlers, and Cedar Mountain Formation records in the current atlas expansion. These are fossil discovery locations, not a complete ancient habitat map.
Main evidence cluster
This guide connects the animal profile, relevant formation or country page, and modern discovery map without treating selected atlas records as a complete fossil catalogue.
Mapped records
Modern fossil discovery map: pins show where selected fossil and specimen records were found today, not ancient Earth positions.
Misconception
Fossil sites are modern discovery locations. Rock movement, erosion, collection history, and incomplete datasets all shape the map.

FAQ
Deinonychus is best represented here by records tied to Cloverly, Cedar Mountain, and Antlers Formation context. Fossil Atlas maps selected source-backed records rather than every published specimen.
No. The map shows modern discovery locations where fossils were found or reported today. Ancient habitat and paleogeography are separate reconstructions.
Yes. The Deinonychus profile feeds the expedition card generator with the animal image, selected records, stats, and visible evidence caveats.
