So if Velociraptor and all of these other dinosaurs are in the same family, there can't be THAT many significant differences between them.right?

Dromaeosauridae also had feathers.but that's another blog post.

The tails themselves were long and thin, and are thought to have provided a stabilizing counterweight while the animal was jumping or chasing down prey.

Dromaeosauridae had large pubic bones similar to that of modern birds, which project outward beneath the base of their tails.

It might even have been used to help raptors climb things, from trees to larger prey animals. This claw could be retracted off the ground when walking, and paleontologists think it could have been used as a slashing or stabbing weapon.

All Dromaeosauridae had a large, sickle-shaped claw on the second toe of each foot.All Dromaeosauridae are theropods – carnivorous dinosaurs that walked around on two legs (instead of four).
