The raptor cleans up. This is a 1.45 SH bear and a 6.1 meter long velociraptor. A Utahraptor would be far bulkier.

I shouldn't say clean up, but it seems like the dinosaur has an advantage.

I know very well what you said. I just elaborated on it. But please tell me something, how is sharp teeth and claws an advantage? Last I checked utahraptor had both just like the bear. Well, Polar Bears are known to have very large canines that are very sharp like in this pic: Â And also I must say something. They have short claws, so they don't get blunted I believe. Also they are made for slicing. I do admit however, that the Utahraptor has very fierce weaponry of it's own.. polar bear claws are made for gripping ice and prey, not slicing.

Just showing that even not at the highest estimates it has a pretty visible advantage over the bear. Here it is at 7m with an average adult male Polar. Achillobator ny Plisator

I'm going to vote for the drom now (although it was clear that it would be visually a lot larger, but I didn't suspect that much).

From the OP. The largest described U. ostrommaysorum specimens are estimated to have reached up to 7 m (23 ft) long and somewhat less than 500 kg (1,100 lb) in weight, comparable to a grizzly bear in size.
They say they are are largest describled. So that must mean that's their max length. I think 5-6 meters is their average length.

1. In the first description, they used 7 m when talking about the ecology of the animal, so it looks like they used this size to represent it.
2. Being twice as large as Deinonychus was listed in the diagnosis of the species (they used the 3,4 m Deinonychus specimen in their comparisons).

The OP is also not the best source of information (unless there is no other source to be found on a particular matter, in which I would use it, I guess like forest elephant maximum size, which I will try to look on later).

What? 500 kg*7-3*63?314 kg (692 lbs) Far away from what you claimed. By the way, scaling a 3,4 m and 73 kg Deinonychus to 6 m yields something close to 900 lbs, just saying.
