Troodon was a small dinosaur, only about 6 feet long, but he had a very large brain compared to his body size. Some scientists think that the was the smartest of all the dinosaurs. It's eyes were large suggesting nocturnal activity they faced slightly forward facing, giving it some depth perception. Troodon had very long, slender limbs suggesting that it was a fast runner.
Troodon is Greek for "wounding tooth", and refers to the dinosaur's sharp teeth with serrated edges.
