Microvenator
Microvenator (meaning "small hunter") is a genus of dinosaur from the Early Cretaceous Cloverly Formation in what is now south central Montana. Microvenator was an oviraptorosaurian theropod. The holotype fossil is an incomplete skeleton, most likely a juvenile, with a living length of about 1.2 m.
#2 Achillobator
Achillobator is voted the second most clever dinosaurs with 116 votes.
Achillobator
Achillobator (/əˌkɪləˈbaɪtɔːr/ ə-KIL-ə-BAY-tor) is a dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur that lived roughly 93 to 80 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous in what is now Mongolia, in Asia. It was among the largest dromaeosaurs; the holotype and only known individual of Achillobator is estimated at 5 to 6 m (16.4 to 19.7 ft) long.Achillobator was a moderately-built, ground-dwelling, bipedal carnivore. It would have been an active predator, hunting with the enlarged, sickle-shaped claw on the second toe.
#3 Agustinia
Agustinia is voted the third most clever dinosaurs with 116 votes.
Agustinia
Agustinia /ɑːɡəˈstɪniə/ is a genus of sauropod dinosaurs from the Early Cretaceous Period of South America. It contains the single species Agustinia ligabuei, a single specimen of which was recovered from the Lohan Cura Formation of Neuquen Province in Argentina, thought to date from the late Aptian to Albian stages of the Early Cretaceous Period, between 116 and 100 million years ago.The name Agustinia honors the discoverer of the specimen, Agustin Martinelli. This dinosaur was originally named in a 1998 abstract written by famous Argentine paleontologist Jose Bonaparte.
#4 Neimongosaurus
Neimongosaurus is voted the fourth most clever dinosaurs with 114 votes.
Neimongosaurus
Neimongosaurus ("Nei Mongol lizard") is a genus of herbivorous therizinosaur theropod dinosaur known from the Upper Cretaceous of Nei Mongol, China. Neimongosaurus is a therizinosauroid which is known from the holotype LH V0001, a partially preserved skull and skeleton, consisting of a partial braincase, the front of the right lower jaw, a nearly complete axial column, a furcula, the shoulder girdle, both humeri, a left radius, parts of the pelvis and parts of the hindlimbs. The specimen was in 1999 collected in the Sanhangobi in Inner Mongolia from the Iren Dabasu Formation dating from the Santonian stage about 85 million years ago.
#5 Achelousaurus
Achelousaurus is voted the fifth most clever dinosaurs with 113 votes.
Achelousaurus
Achelousaurus ( /əˌkiːloʊˈsɔːrəs/ or: /ˌækɪˌloʊəˈsɔːrəs/) is a genus of centrosaurine ceratopsid dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous Period of what is now North America, about 74.2 million years ago. The first fossils of Achelousaurus were collected in Montana in 1987, by a team led by Jack Horner, with more finds made in 1989. In 1994, Achelousaurus horneri was described and named by Scott D.
#6 Afrovenator
Afrovenator is voted the sixth most clever dinosaurs with 113 votes.
Afrovenator
Afrovenator (/ˌæfroʊvɪˈneɪtər/; "African hunter") is a genus of megalosaurid theropod dinosaur from the middle Jurassic Period of northern Africa. The remains of Afrovenator were discovered in 1993 in the Tiourarén Formation of the department of Agadez in Niger. The Tiourarén was originally thought to represent the Hauterivian to Barremian stages of the early Cretaceous Period, or approximately 132 to 125 million years ago (Sereno et al.
#7 Ahshislepelta
Ahshislepelta is voted the seventh most clever dinosaurs with 113 votes.
Ahshislepelta
Ahshislepelta is a genus of herbivorous ankylosaurine ankylosaurid dinosaur from Late Cretaceous (late Campanian stage) deposits of San Juan Basin, New Mexico, USA. Ahshislepelta is known from the holotype SMP VP-1930, a closely associated and incomplete postcranial skeleton of an adult individual consisting of the shoulder girdle, a partial left forelimb, vertebrae and osteoderms. It was discovered in 2005 and collected between 2005 and 2009 from the Hunter Wash Member of the Kirtland Formation at the Ah-shi-sle-pah Wash locality.
