This paleontological restoration is highly hypothetical, as very little fossil material of the animal is known. Use of this image might be controversial.

Reason: The taxonomic position of Deltadromeus is very unstable.
You may ask further questions about the accuracy of this image at the image review page of Wikiproject Palaeontology on the English Wikipedia.
