Summary

Description
English: Duonychus preserved the largest keratin hand claw sheaths of any known dinosaur, at 30 cm in length. Large claws are typical for therizinosaurs, but Duonychus only had two fingers per hand, unique among the known therizinosauria. It was herbivorous, likely using these claws to pull branches toward its mouth. Duonychus was about 3 m long in total body length.
