Chicken from hell once roamed the Dakotas
For nearly a decade, scientists have been trying to piece together bones discovered in a sedimentary rock layer known as the Hell Creek Formation in three locations in North and South Dakota, and the oviraptorosaur they've discovered, was an 11-feet-long, 500-pound, beaked, clawed, feathery beast nicknamed the "Chicken from Hell."
