Therizinosaurus had weak claws

Dinosaur of the day Struthiosaurus, a small nodosaurid from Europe (not to be confused with the ornithomimid Struthiomimus)..

In dinosaur news this week:

Alvarezsaurs and therizinosaurs were weird, and the giant claws of Therizinosaurus were surprisingly weak
Scientists studied birds to figure out how dinosaurs may have played
Raptors probably used their “killing claws” to pin their prey, rather than slash at prey.
