      Having seen the exhibit, I can say that of the several specimens of 
Velociraptor there, the only hyperextended pedal digit 2 was the one that 
would have been imbedded in the Protoceratops. The troodonts in the exhibit 
seemed to normally carry digit 2 higher. Did anyone else make this 
observation? DV
