Poor basturd, global warming obviously knocked ‘em all off!

N. graffami's leaf-shaped teeth and big belly suggest the animal was a plant-eaterso why the killer claws? "We really don't know," said study team member Lindsay Zanno of the Field Museum in Chicago.

I guess I need to be the first one to post the obvious!
The damn thing had large claws to grasp trees and pull them down to get to the tender leaves!

"We really don't know," said study team member Lindsay Zanno of the Field Museum in Chicago.Crochet needles had not yet been invented so this was an adaptive modification to allow the critter to do needlepoint.

An ancestor of Helen Thomas?
