Terrible Lizards Microraptor with Kobi OmenakaWe've already mentioned Gigantoraptor this series so let's get down to the other end of the etymological scale and look at Microraptor.

There's loads of good specimens of this animal so it is perhaps no surprise that there has been lots of research on it and, by extension, lots of arguments about its lifestyle, evolution and especially, how well it could fly.
